What is the difference between LArche, the International Federation of LArche Communities and LArche International?
Initially, L’Arche was the name of the house in Trosly-Breuil, France in which Jean Vanier welcomed Raphael and Philippe. The emerging community in Trosly-Breuil then took over the name, showing the way for all the other communities that were to follow and that usually added a local identity to the name “L’Arche”. L’Arche communities who have been welcomed as probationary or permanent members form the International Federation of L’Arche Communities. L’Arche International is sometimes used as a less bureaucratic synonym for the Federation. Usually however, we use this term to describe the International Secretariat and the different activities carried out on the international level.
