An inviting and well presented\na well-directed play leading to the theme, a well-founded sermon that is\nsermon, a time of praise with excellent singers and musicians\nmusicians in an impressive attitude of worship, creative and appropriate use of\nmultimedia, young committed leaders who blessed \"their\" teens, etc.\nblessed, etc. Our young people did an excellent job with an\nexemplary attitude of heart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the following Tuesday, twelve of us\ntwelve of us attended the Seniors' Day at Chrischona. Two personal reports revealed\nwhat a hopeful attitude to life can achieve. The former\nNational Councillor and President of the Swiss Association of Master Builders Werner Messmer\n(72) himself sees the danger of becoming increasingly critical in his senior years.\nFor example, in discussions in the Christian community. He advised\nto be enthusiastic about the common goal and to take on the role of encouragement for the\nyounger people in the congregation. Among other things, he confronted the 700\nseniors with the sentence: \"<em>It\nis no longer about us!<\/em>\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sentence from our mission statement\nreads: <em>We build community for the\nnext generation<\/em>. The Church is the only organisation that does not focus\non its members, but on the \"not-yet-members\". These\nconvictions require a great deal of maturity and selflessness on the part of the long\nmaturity and selflessness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that is not in short supply with our older brothers and sisters! Dear people with long life experience, from the bottom of my heart I thank you for being there! You show us what maturity means, you pray for us, you bear with us and encourage us, you lovingly correct us, you finance things that don't even go your way, you are really good role models for us. It is a great privilege that we have you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Foreword from the seetal chile Poscht 06\/19<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the last time I had the privilege of being present at the Teens Blessing with the \"hat\" of a father.
