Summertime is almost over again and with it our big outreach time at the basis, here in Panorama Center. One practice day followed the next and in between there were also volunteer weeks, in which OCGers could come to us in Walzenhausen for organic training. I had the opportunity to prepare a lot of projects, visualize and "resurrect" in some challenges, so that we could even function together as a swarm and move the mountains very practically!
This summer, we as OCG have spent a lot of time on the topic of "rest on every side". The term comes from the time of Moses, when God promised him and the whole people of Israel a rest from all enemies. This rest didn't just come automatically though, they had to take it piece by piece and defeat all enemies - who were many times superior.
On May 28, 2022, we were able to experience a wonderful online Friend's Meeting. The motto of the day was "Collective maturity". Dad spoke a lot about children in one part, how they have all the maturity – like a „germinating seed“ - in them. Jesus says it in Mark. 10:15 like this: "... Let these little children come to me, do not resist them! For to such belongs the kingdom of God." ... belongs! - Not: "... such will recognize ..."! Not: "... such will one day ..."! "To such belongs the kingdom of God."...
Wakpa means "river" in the Lakota Indian language. It symbolizes the nature of our life. Like the river, we spring from a source and have a great purpose. The river pushes forward steadfastly, overcoming every barrier, watering, changing and giving life to its surroundings. Realized with breathtaking images, indian instruments and recorded by a Lakota Native American, this song wants to call us all to be a part of this change ourselves.
Time and again, mothers ask me about our six children: at school, kindergarten or on the playground. They come with many questions and want to know how I do it. They already can't cope with their one or two children and are at their wit's end. What must it be like with six children? That's why I'm telling you a little bit about it.
I'm really excited about Friend's Meeting 2022! 😊 Here is an electrifying quote: "The highest enjoyment in life that you can experience is the uninterrupted flowing along, observing, speaking together with, and acting at the same time - just going along with God simultaneously, with the mature Spirit that works in you. And I tell you, there is no higher feeling of life, there is no higher profit than exactly this direct connection upward."
Elias and I became happy parents of a second sweet daughter, on January 22, 2022. For me it was the biggest and at the same time most beautiful change so far 😊. But since Janice Levia's arrival, I just couldn't manage my household, the OCG concerns and all the other work at all. At least not in the way I wanted...
It is really unbelievable what is going on right now in our world - which has become so cold. I can honestly say that there is no morning where I do not wake up and right away, I'm looking into the face of a monster that has about a hundred names.
Relax and enjoy, the "Band of Brothers" invites you to do so with their instrumental piece "Prayer".
