Our Values

The Order of Malta, with its almost thousand-year- old tradition, is one of the oldest institutions of Christianity and is represented worldwide in around 120 countries and has more than 13,500 members.

The Order is at the service of the poor, the sick and those in need. In a similar way to the Red Cross, the Order provides aid with its own medical, social and other aid facilities, whether in the context of armed conflicts or natural disasters.

Above all, its members are personally engaged in assisting those in need, for example as volunteers accompanying people during pilgrimages or the International Holiday Camp.

Giving and receiving

During the week, we are not only serving our guests but we are also here to all be friends in order to share extraordinary moments together. Guests will open their hearts, do the same and you will grow a lot in a short time. So these are not only holidays for guests but it will also be a holiday for you!

An international gathering

Being able to meet so many different people in a week is rare. 25 countries, around 500 unique people with their own backgrounds is something that happens once in a lifetime. Be ready to taste specialties of each country, discuss about many subjects, pray in all languages, and party with everyone!

A spiritual adventure

Sports, parties, and activities will go along with holy masses, and a silent night to elevate your body but also our spirits. Fraternity and faith are very important for the Order of Malta in order to fulfill its mission in the world of today.
