Women’s Sabbath in Hamburg Barmbek, Germany

God’s Peace and our Freedom

After three years, the women were finally able to celebrate a women's Sabbath in the Hamburg Barmbek congregation on March 4, 2023. The theme "God's Peace and our Freedom" was the common thread leading throughout the day.
After worship, Nancy Duske and Cornelia Warning presented the diversity of women's work in the church. In her sermon, Cornelia said that peace in the biblical sense means more than the absence of war. Peace means having a good relationship with others, with oneself, and with God.
A delicious lunch buffet had been prepared for the whole congregation.In the afternoon, Cornelia led the women's group in looking for peaceful moments in their lives, which led to sharing experiences and good conversations. The afternoon ended with refreshments.
