Monthly Motto August 2020
Annual Motto: „Vidimus! – We have seen!“
Bible verse for August 2020: Mt 25, 36
„I was in prison and you came to visit me.“
Impulse:
“Nobody is an island” – this is a well-known saying. I think there is a lot of truth in that. We all know the temptation to close ourselves off. And maybe you have already experienced that this only makes life harder and sadder. It is good when someone frees us from this self-made prison: with a good word, a little attention or the serious question: “How are you actually?”.
Let us try to build bridges to the people who close themselves in front of our eyes. After all, this isolation can often also be caused by external things: poverty, old age, a disability … Jesus himself invites us to make an experience of freedom. We then grow beyond ourselves and also closer to each other!
