On June 29, Arsenal of Hope ended a 96-day quarantine period during which hundreds of "homeless" men were able to follow the precious recommendation to stay at home.

For now, monitored visits (individual or group), voluntary activities with schools and also the traditional bazaars on the 2nd Saturday of the month are still suspended. We suggest here some proposals to continue together:
- BUONA GIORNATA: every Monday, we propose a reflection by Ernesto Olivero, founder of SERMIG - Fraternity of Hope, which is addressed to everyone who is inspired by the spirituality of that Fraternity. The “Buona Giornata” can be read on our social media.
- TUESDAY LIVE: Every Tuesday, at 8 pm, we are meeting and talking to people who can teach us something from an experience. On Instagram @arsenal_da_esperanca.
- ONLINE MEETINGS: If you want to organize online meetings with your group or community, we are available to participate and take the testimony of Arsenal of Hope.
As we have experienced many times in our journey, a problem can become an opportunity to grow, to go deeper and to open new paths.
