Together on the way - in diversity
Community living
A glimpse behind the scenes
Who lives in the parsonage?
Currently five individuals aged between mid-forty to sixty live in the parsonage of Saint Sebastian. We are all working. Two women, three men, two couples, all Swiss, all with some migration background.
Living in a community makes a lot of things easier. This is our expierence which we accumulated over the course of our individual lives. We now share this here.
Each has his consisely alocated space for living. The rest we share.
As a community, we founded the association with the name “Acting out of Silence” on the evening of the equinox in March 2021.
