Map is below. Annual General Meeting, April 20Our next community AGM will be held in the hall of Bruder Klaus after Mass on Sunday, April 20th. The community will provide a light cheese and wine supper, and it is hoped that as many people as possible will attend. Joint Mass on April 27Our next joint mass with our Swiss hosts will be held on April 27th at 5:30pm at Bruder Klaus. As usual we will be providing snacks for both communities. The social committee will provide the drinks, but it would be greatly appreciated if as many of our community as possible could bring a plate of eats so that we can offer a tasty selection of snacks from many countries.

She did her first counseling course 17 years ago and has done many courses since, gaining a diploma in clinical and pastoral counseling and accreditation with a professional association in UK. She moved with her family to Germany in 2001. Joan has gradually taken on more clients and her most recent training has been in life-coaching and in EFT (Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy).

We started to make the decorations for the Children's Hospital in the church...
... and we sold baked goods from 10:00am - 5:00pm. It was such a beautiful day!
March 1st: Finishing up the decorations and helping the daycare center
We had to come to the church in the morning to finish the decorations for the hospital. But everyone had fun listening to music while we worked.
And some of us helped in a daycare center in the afternoon from 2:00pm - 5:00pm cleaning out a storage room and some book shelves. We had lots of fun going through the bookshelf, and found many books we used to have.
March 4th: Bringing the decorations to the hospital
We brought all the decorations to the hospital. We were all proud of ourselves, that we had made over 100 decorations.
We were even given the opportunity to hang up the first of the decorations in the hallway of the hospital.
We also gave the hospital 900Fr. as a donation.
This is the picture of all of us who were able to come to the hospital that day. Please click on the map below for more detailed directions. |
