Pastor Adam visited the tree he planted on behalf of The Lutheran Center (UNL) in 2016 as part of the Luthergarten project this morning. 500 trees were planted in Wittenberg, commemorating 500 years of reformation. Each tree was planted by a church or congregation, inclusive of a large number of Christian traditions. Each tree has a sibling, planted in the home of those who visited Wittenberg, remembering the breath of the spread of Evangelical reform.

Today was another busy day exploring Germany. We started our day at Wartburg Castle in Eisenach then headed to the Bach House (the house J.S. Bach was born in) and enjoyed a concert played on the instruments of Bach’s time. This evening we hosted a service at the Augustinian Monastery in Erfurt.
