Hope for peace in the neighborhood

Per Zoom

Themenreihe Hoffnung

Following up on our theme day in November, we would like to cordially invite you to a continuation of the hope themes and offer a one-hour workshop every month. A schedule of the following themes and dates can be downloaded here.

Russia‘s war against Ukraine has also left those living in neighboring countries holding their breath. Countries that have experienced Soviet aggression and occupation are particularly worried about the war and feel sympathy for the people in Ukraine. They help refugees and provide humanitarian aid to people in Ukraine. They also carefully study the political situation in Russia and Europe. They prepare for the worst and hope for the best – peace in the neighborhood. Church leaders from the Baltic countries share their experiences, concerns and hopes in view of the ongoing war in Ukraine.

Kaˉrlis Žols, Bishop electus of the Latvian Ev.-Luth. Church Worldwide (requested)
