  • Gott Will, Dass Wir Fröhlich Sind, Und Hasst Die Traurigkeit. Denn Wenn Er Wollte, Dass Wir Traurig Sein Sollten, Gäbe Er N
    Einzelpreis 1,00 € Ausgabe Nr. 6 03. Juli bis 29. August 2021 Liebfrauen/St. Martin St. Alban St. Stephan St. Johannes d. Täufer St. Goar Oberwesel Perscheid Niederburg Damscheid St. Goar Gott will, dass wir fröhlich sind, und hasst die Traurigkeit. Denn wenn er wollte, dass wir traurig sein sollten, gäbe er nicht die Sonne, Mond und die Früchte der Erde, gäbe er Finsternis, ließe nicht mehr die Sonne auf- gehen und den Sommer zurück- kehren. Martin Luther Gott will, dass wir fröhlich sind Die Ferien stehen vor der Tür. Wahrscheinlich wurden sie von vielen noch nie so ersehnt wie in diesem Jahr nach mehr als einem Jahr Pan- demie und Einschränkungen. Gott hat uns die Zeit geschenkt. Von Eile hat er nichts gesagt, so heißt eine alte Weisheit. Es ist auch eine Kunst, freie Zeit richtig zu nutzen und nicht mit allen möglichen Aktivitäten vollzustopfen. Es sollte schon ein Unterschied sein zwischen den Anforderungen des Schul- und Berufsle- bens und der freien Zeit. Schließlich will Gott, dass wir fröhlich sind. In diesem Jahr lesen wir das Markusevangelium in den Sonntagsgottes- diensten. Es eignet sich besonders, dass Sie es auch für sich allein lesen. Vielleicht finden Sie ja eine Bibel an ihrem Urlaubsort vor oder zuhause. Lesen Sie einmal das ein oder andere Kapitel. Meist erschließt sich das Verständnis nach einigem Nachdenken von selbst. Schrittweise wollen wir die Zahl der Gottesdienste etwas erhöhen, mit den Werktagsgottesdiensten haben wir ja bereits wieder begonnen. Die Zahl der Gottesdienste hängt auch davon ab, wie sie nach dem Ende der Einschränkungen angenommen werden. Noch ist dieses Ende nicht in Sicht.

  • Castles Along the Rhine; the Middle Rhine
    CASTLES ALONG THE RHINE; THE MIDDLE RHINE The Middle Rhine is between Mainz and Cologne (or Köln) but the section of maximum interest for river cruisers is between Koblenz and Rűdesheim. This section is where they keep some of Germany’s best kept medieval keeps - 20 of them, some ruins, some preserved, all surrounded by vineyards and with quaint medieval towns. Around every bend another stone edifice stands watch over the endless parade of freight barges and cruise boats. Each castle has its own spot in Germany’s medieval past. Your river cruise will spend at least an afternoon cruising this section with everyone on deck with a cup of bullion, tea, coffee or a beverage depending on the weather and the cruise director providing commentary on each castle/town you pass. The Rhine gorge castles are bracketed by Germanic / Prussian monuments. At the south end is Rűdesheim with the Niederwalddenkmal monument, commemorating the foundation of the German “Empire” after the Franco- Prussian War. The first stone was laid in 1871, by Wilhelm I. The 38m (123 ft) monument represents the union of all Germans. The central figure is a 10.5 m (34 ft) Germania holding the crown of the emperor in the right hand and in the left the imperial sword. Beneath Germania is a large relief that shows emperor Wilhelm I riding a horse with nobility, the army commanders and soldiers. On the left side of the monument is the peace statue and on the right is the war statue. At the north end in Koblenz is Deutsches Eck (German Corner) where the Mosel and Rhine Rivers meet.
