La Convivencia means: Co-Existence

From 711-1492 in Medieval Spain, all Muslims, Jews and Christians lived side by side in harmony and peace while making great advancements in architecture, arts, literature, science and philosophy.  Hundreds of years before the European Enlightenment and Renaissance, La Convivencia was a period of time where diverse citizenry took seriously the notion of human rights, and social justice to their mutual benefit. The legacy of La Convivencia, ensuring stable communities mutually bound by co-existence in harmony, peace, and understanding…still evades us today.

La Convivencia, an Introduction

What Does La Convivencia Mean?

For the past year, I have had the privilege of partnering with La Convivencia in a variety of ways. One of my favorite things about this organization is their love and passion for justice, and their desire to build bridges between the different faiths represented in our communities.  — Pastor Sammy Arroyo, First United Methodist Church of Hightstown
