Schöninger Christuskirche: Celebrate and discuss 500 years of the Baptist movement!

Schöningen. An exciting event in the Christuskirche in Schöningen! From October 30th to November 24th, a fascinating exhibition on the Baptist movement will be presented. The motto? "Non -violent, consistent, live together - 500 years of Baptist movement". This event is launched by the pastors Peter Muttersbach and Moritz Allersmeier and is an urgent call for cooperation in an increasingly polarizing society.

The opening of this remarkable exhibition will take place on Wednesday, October 30th at 6 p.m., with an exciting lecture by Professor Erich Geldbach, who has taught worldwide at renowned universities like Harvard in his career. He will give profound insights into the Baptist movement. This exhibition is not only intended for adults; Schools are also invited to take part in specially registered morning events. On November 19, a special evening of conversation with the title "Living Democracy" will also take place.

call for dialogue

"We are currently experiencing in Schöningen, similar to everywhere that the tone of the tone becomes roumer - especially in social networks," says Moritz Allersmeier. A committed team has dealt with how the company fission can be countered. The answer? Open discussions and the exchange about the basics of our democracy! "It is all the more important to talk to each other when currents appear that question the basic values of our society," continues Allersmeier.

The Baptist movement has contributed to the anchorage of fundamental values such as respecting human dignity and freedom of conscience for centuries. "The time classification of our exhibition could not be more suitable! It reminds that many people risk their lives to stand up for these important principles," explains Peter Muttersbach. Visitors can enjoy the exhibition on Tuesday to Saturday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. The time for a coexistence that connects and strengthens has come!
