history

The association was founded on December 5, 1974 as the Ring of Missionary Youth Movements (RMJ). The starting point was joint missionary activities during the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. The common goal of all affiliated institutions is the fulfillment of the missionary mandate as understood in accordance with the Lausanne obligation . In 1975 the association became a member of the Working Group of Protestant Youth. In 1978 the first use in the non-church sector was carried out at the Frankfurt Book Fair. In 1982 the first European conference for leaders of youth missionary works was held with around 140 participants. In 1983 the association was recognized as a sponsor of the FSJ, from 2002 also for other countries. In 1985 the main board of the Evangelical Alliance officially recognized what was then the Ring of Missionary Youth Movements. In 1986 the RMJ became a registered association and was recognized by the state of Rhineland-Palatinate as a carrier of free youth welfare. In 1988, as in the subsequent events, he played a key role in organizing the Christival youth congress in Nuremberg. In 1991, a donation check certificate was developed and awarded together with the German Evangelical Alliance and the AEM. In 1992 it was accepted as a professional association of the Diakonisches Werk. In 1997 the location of the main office was relocated from Altenkirchen to Kassel .
