It was the coolest thing-- right after the Fall Connexxion weekend, Anja presented me with a hand-made Advents' Calendar she had worked on -- little envelopes on a string--inside is a verse for each day & a packet of tea! (cozy!... and meaningful! Danke, Anja!)
Winter wonderland...
Does this look cold? Snowy?...
Enchanting? It was all of the above... here are amazing friends & Connexxion staffers Birthe, Anja & Vera!
It was also work... here is our breakfast with the team-- ( Thomas K. on left). We sometimes stay there after the students leave, so we can "retreat" ourselves, plan, catch up, share vision, pray, and be refreshed by fellowship, and do even MORE planning. (out of order-- this event was JUST after the following photos)
Saying "good-byes" is always hard after a weekend-- Daniel, in the middle, had driven all the way from Munich (maybe 6 hours!). He has a cool story of how God met him, years ago, when he was driving home from just such a weekend.
Lydia and I have been friends since Jena days... she now lives in Braunschweig and is Anja's roomie.
It was cool to catch up with my buddy Burdy, who used to study in Jena and is now a counselor.
