Tips from the Community
Quasi a stone's throw from the house of God stands a sacred small monument with the special dedication as a CROSS OF PEACE. Here I would like to offer the viewer a short text by Christiane Völkel, who personally describes the Apostle Paul's letter to the community in Philippi as "One of the beautiful passages that always touches my heart". Paul writes: + "Do not worry about anything, but present… your requests with thanksgiving to God! And the PEACE OF GOD, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in the community with Christ." (Phil 4, 6-7) + She comments as follows: "You have to let these two sentences go through your head word for word! So there is everything in there about the 'Good News' (…) And another beautiful aspect that moves me in the second sentence: It is said that prayer achieves something. Namely, to find peace within oneself and to walk one's life path from the community with Jesus."
