What does he want to become when he is older? “A soldier,” replies the six-year-old boy. Why on earth would you say that? “Because then I will be able to kill people!” The young lad is deadly serious. Today’s commemoration of “Red Hand Day” serves as a reminder about this reality.

“Carl Wilhelm Louis Preuss is an outstanding personage in our Church,” emphasised District Apostle Rüdiger Krause in response to a question about him. In his time, Preuss was the Apostle from Hamburg—a courageous anchor in a stormy sea. Today is the 140th anniversary of his death.
