Christmas and end of the year

Now another year is almost over. On Saturday, Dec. 17, 2022, we were again able to hold our traditional Advent Singing in the Brockhagen archive. This event also concludes our network year as it did before the pandemic.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have consistently supported our work: for all contributions, feedback, energetic help, and also for the financial donations and kind words that have made our work possible.

We continue to live in special circumstances in Europe. After the pandemic we now have an energy crisis, a pending inflation and the challenge of climate change. All this also affects our work in different ways – mostly through increasing costs for procurement, our actions and our building.

We are therefore very grateful that, thanks to many donations, we will be able to tackle the necessary conversion of our heating system in the Brockhagen archive to a sustainable heat pump, probably in the new year! We can also make very good use of the space this will free up in the basement of the archive building.

Our program of events for the first half of 2023 will be published in the next few days. We hope that also in 2023 many beautiful meetings will be possible, in presence or also virtually.

We wish all of you blessed holidays and a good transition into the new year!
