Our congregation anxiously awaited the 17th Sunday after Pentecost - just a regular Sunday in ordinary time, on the one hand, but on the other - we had been waiting for a long time for an ordained pastor to visit us while dealing with a vacancy. We were particuarly happy that our guest was a particularly interesting and deep person – Pastor Chris Repp from the USA, former lecturer at the Novosaratovka seminary. He arrived at the congregation thanks to the help of the former Area Dean, Bradn Buerkle and Bishop Otto Schaude. Despite technical difficulties which delayed the start of the worship service, we were still very happy and thankful to God that we were able to worship together in this way.
Vitaly Schmidt. Church Council President.
