This July, Knanaya youth from across Germany and beyond will come together in Frankfurt for Thekkans Aura, a three-day celebration of community, faith, and belonging. From July 10 to 12, students and young professionals — many living far from home amid demanding shifts, a new language, and the quiet loneliness of life abroad — will gather to reconnect, unwind, and remember that they are part of something larger. The weekend brings together music, a DJ evening, shared meals, icebreakers and group activities, and a Holy Mass that honours our spiritual roots. Whether you are returning to old friends or about to make new ones, this is your invitation to be part of it.
