A fast with a pleasant aftertaste
First comes Mardi Gras—the Tuesday preceding Lent (also known as Shrove Tuesday)—then Ash Wednesday, and then Lent: a period that stretches all the way to Easter on the calendar. It is not about food deprivation per se, but primarily about introspection, a deeper look into one’s own heart.

The new logos are in: well-conceived and colourful
An Apostle who not only preaches about the new motto for the year, but also converts it into art for his District Church?

Christmas joy without fear
When the shepherds in the field heard the good tidings of Christ’s birth, they perceived two calls: they were to have great joy and no fear! The birth of the Son of God was to bring joy to all people and make the fear of the individual recede into the background. Do we hear this too?

Rejoice!
Joy is a state that is not dependent on health or illness. It is a sense of well-being and satisfaction that overlooks everything else and focuses on one thing only! The divine services give such a special impetus—even in the midst of the pandemic.

Equally created in the image of God, and equal in commission too
Both in terms of organisation and content, the most recent District Apostle Meeting was dominated by the coronavirus crisis. Yet not even the pandemic was able to stop the work that needed to be done on the future-oriented topics on the agenda of this conference.

The donkey, that’s me
Jesus knew exactly what He was doing when He chose His mount to enter Jerusalem. What’s more, He sent signals right up to our own time. Here is a reflection on the theme of Palm Sunday.

Ascension means: now it’s your turn
Pentecost is considered the birthday of the church. But like a plant that germinates underground before the first shoots emerge, the origins of the church lie deeper and earlier.

Lead-up to Pentecost
God reveals Himself as Trinity. The self-revelation of God is concluded in the Pentecost event, the grand finale. The divine services in the month of May revolve around the promise, sending, and efficacy of the Holy Spirit.
