Pastor preaches around the world

Pastor preaches around the world

The evening in the well-attended erloserkirche begins with jaunty jazz music from electric piano (konrad buschhuter) and double bass (nikolaus durst). People with red wine glasses stroll through the decagonal architecture. In front of the altar: a speaker’s platform with microphone stand. Unusual impressions for a church. But all this is nothing compared to the trampling, whistling and cheering of the audience, which will be heard again and again in the church hall during the next three hours, as it is usually only known from the public viewing of the soccer world cup.

There had never been an event like this before in bamberg. Poetry slams now take place in almost every city in germany, but today, in addition to three students, five pastors from the region are competing to recite their texts. The topics are as open as the texts she writes are heavy: "god and the world".

“There! There is one again”

It's always the smallest ones who mess up every plan. Why should it be any different with the bats?? Actually, course leader andrea wolfel had planned to first play a little with the children and then tell them a story about bats. Alone, the plan was soon ruined. "There! There is one!", ten girls and boys of elementary school age call out, pointing to the sky. In fact, a brown bat can be seen there for a few seconds, disappearing into the woods in a flash.

What looks like a small bird at first glance is really a dwarf bat. This is the smallest bat there is. "It messes up my plan", says andrea wolfel, putting aside the book about bats and digging the bat detector out of her bag. The noise tells her exactly which bat is approaching when. This is what the children are waiting for when they turn up for the "bat for first timers" vacation program have met on a meadow at the edge of the forest in letten (district dachstadt).

Restoring dilapidated houses pays off

The municipality is continuing the request program of the intermunicipal alliance schweinfurter oberland (SWOL) for investments in interior development, which expires at the end of the year, in its current form. This was decided by the municipal council with one dissenting vote. In this context, inner development means that new living space is not created by developing new building areas on the outskirts of the community, but by renovating old, vacant houses and by using previously undeveloped areas in the inner area. The bavarian council of ministers decided on two demand initiatives "land unsealing and "inside instead of outside. The municipal council voted for the participation of the municipality in these programs. This means that for many mabnahmen there are increased subsidies from the freistaat.

Mayor fridolin zehner (CSU) emphasized that the SWOL demand program should above all also serve to enable young families to remain in the town. Ten percent of the demandable construction or. Renovation costs are demanded, but the maximum amounts can be determined by the member associations themselves. The demand per child is also different. The alliance steering committee decided not to standardize the demand rates.

Why many gereuth residents don’t want a subway stop

The sud suburban railroad stop was intended as a kind of lure to make the ground-level extension of the railroad line palatable to the people of bamberg. But in the very place where residents stand to benefit the most from the new transit service, the project is meeting with resistance – in gereuth. The reason for the protest, which is now articulated in a huge and hardly visible burgers club banner, is a rough, well ingrown and heavily frequented playground at kornstrabe. When the suburban train stop is built, a concrete ramp will lead to the platform where the playground is particularly overgrown. The project has met with opposition from many, especially from norbert tscherner (BBB), head of the burgerverein. He suggests a variant that has been realized south of the forchheim strabe. There, the rail stop could provide good connections to the brose arena and the possible training center of the chamber of handicrafts. But in the city administration one holds this idea for absurdly. The city council and the relevant authorities had already made up their minds.

This did not stop the residents from the neighboring distelweg from climbing onto the barricades. They consider the train stop dispensable. "We have a bus."

While the focus at the moment is still on the further growing together of the four communities, everyone was aware that the pastoral care of the future will encompass much larger spaces. This is how the committee members filled the keywords "challenge", "fear", "opportunities" and "next steps" with their reflections, plans for the future and their visions.
