Jan HusHUS EXCURSION - Program

09.00 departure at Jeneralka
09.30 Bethlehem Chapel and Hus statue, Prague
11.30 Bus trip to Hussite Museum, Tabor
16.30 Back in Jeneralka

During this excursion the Czech team (Sasa, Petr and Charis) will help us discover what key lessons we can learn from the early reformation of Jan Hus and the Moravian movement.

When we talk about reformation, what are the core principles as taught/modelled by Hus and the Moravians that are still valid today, but also: what are the pitfalls, where did the reformation go off-track, so hopefully we won't repeat this. And what was Hus' role in shaping the Czech nation, and what does this mean for the Czech contribution to Europe?
