We drink to life: Purim & Carnival

Purim is about turning things upside down and inside out: even the frightening experiences are turned into parody. During carnival, prevailing conditions are turned upside down until lent begins on Ash Wednesday. Here’s to life – Lechaim and Cheers!

Wonder-full: Hanukkah & Christmas

Each day during the eight days of Hanukkah an additional candle is lit. Light in the darkness recalls the miracle of light in the Temple of Jerusalem. During the dark season, Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus, who comes into the world as light. God shows himself in the miracles of life. Hope that is rekindled over and over!

Remembering for the Future: Zachor & 9 November

The biblical word „zachor“ means „remember“. On 9 November, we remember the pogroms of 1938, we remember the danger of being indifferent. May the memory of injustice lead us to shape the future. A future without antisemitism, unjustified discrimination on the basis of ethnic origin, gender, age, religion, health condition, disability or sexual orientation. Remember human dignity!

The many gifts of nature: Sukkot & Thanksgiving

On Sukkot Jews celebrate trust in God’s care, even in the shaky booth, the sukkah. Christians give thanks for the harvest and reflect on their role in the preservation of creation. The earth is entrusted to all of us. Being grateful!

Celebrating reconciliation: Teshuvah & Repentance

After the Days of Repentance, Jews celebrate reconciliation with God and experience God’s unconditional love on Yom Kippur. Christians seek reconciliation: praying, celebrating the Eucharist and turning to God during the 40 days of Lent. Through rituals of repentance, Jews and Christians celebrate God’s mercy, and recommit themselves to living out their faiths in ways that help to transform our world. Beginning anew!

Connecting past and present: Tikkun & Repair

On 9 Av Jews commemorate the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple. Christians in earlier times interpreted it as a judgement by God. Today, the churches affirm their solidarity with the Jewish people. Repair, tikkun is in focus. Caring for one another! God is here, searching for us: Where are you?

Called by name: Naming & Baptism

Naming in Judaism: a sign of the covenant, a sign of belonging. For boys, it coincides with the circumcision on the 8th day. Baptism seals admission into the community with Jesus Christ and the Church: God’s covenant unites the generations. To be a child of God! United eternally.
