Canon Xt Hack Canon Rebel Xt Question?

visit to the mayor

I just came back from my meeting with the mayor of the city of Alzey. I am beieindruckt. It was a very nice and relaxed conversation. It was important to make clear that we want to live and work as a church and not isolated and closed off, but see ourselves as a church for the city. Interestingly, he has much in demand: How to become a pastor? What happens during an appeal process? How to finance itself as free churches? I was also pleased that he based on my background of my accent immediately suspected of Schleswig-Holstein
:-) He also wanted to know what my first impression of Alzey and what I would miss as an outsider. After we are still a bit verquatscht in terms of local politics, I invited officially to my surgery at 01 March. He wants to come. In freue ich mich.

Motivationstag

Samstag hatten wir bei uns in der Gemeinde am Schillerplatz einen sogenannten Motivationstag mit meinem Vikariatsbegleiter Henrik Diekmann aus Ingelheim. Es war eine wirklich super Zeit. Zum Beginn meines Dienstes haben wir uns gemeinsam nochmal die Ziele Gottes für seine Gemeinde erarbeitet, um dann gemeinsam zu schauen wie wir die jetztige Situation unserer Gemeinede beschreiben würden und wo wir die Gemeinde 2012 sehen wollen. Das war natürlich besonders spannend für mich. An einem Punkt sollten die Gemeindglieder die fünf wichtigsten Schwerpunkte meines Dienstes beschreiben. Ich bin glücklich und dankbar für die Ehrlichkeit, denn ich finde es grausam wenn man Erwartungen nie nennt und so unnötiger Ensteht frustration. On the contrary, that what I hoped and I can well imagine was also confirmed by the expectations of the community and encouraged. So we are well on our way together. May God bless this process and intensive support.
