Cafe by Campus

Vera had the great idea this month, that during final exams (which lasts several weeks here), she could organize her church & student friends to offer a Cafe for a few weeks. It's in the fellowship area of the church's lower floor, which had already been used in the past to welcome college students, under the name "Cafe Quo (Vadis)."
Here we are bundled up, when I came up for a short visit!
Her Baptist church is literally right by the TU Harburg- Hamburg campus (the campus grew up around their buildings, and the red brick look is the same). Christopher was studying there, too, but also serving up snacks and tea. He's an active student in the Connexxion group.
So each day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. students come with books or laptop, and maybe bring a study partner so they can help them solve their engineering formulas, and they order coffee and baked goods!

Martha,
Just happened upon your blog and wanted to tell you I think what you're doing is wonderful. As a college student here in the U.S. & someone who has spent significant time in Europe, it really encourages my heart to see your ministry to college aged believers abroad. Keep up the good work for the Kingdom! God's blessings. :)
