Places to see in ( Strasbourg - France ) Eglise protestante Saint Pierre le Jeune
The Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune Protestant Church is one of the most important church buildings of the city of Strasbourg, France, from the art historical and architectural viewpoints. It got its name, Young St. Peter's, because of the existence of three other St. Peter's churches in the same city: Saint-Pierre-le-Vieux (Old St. Peter's), divided into a Catholic and a Lutheran church, and Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune catholique, a massive neo-Romanesque domed church from the late 19th century.
The church has been Lutheran since 1524 and its congregation forms part of the Protestant Church of Augsburg Confession of Alsace and Lorraine. It is located on the Route Romane d'Alsace. The oldest part of the church is the small lower church used as a burial crypt, which is the remains of a Columban church erected in the 7th century.
Three of the four arched galleries of the cloister date from the 11th century, the fourth arched gallery is from the 14th century.
The Gothic main building, with its numerous chapels and the lavish rib vault dates from the 14th century. There are many frescoes from this time and the following one-and-one-half centuries, memorial slabs and monuments, the baptismal font, the central painting of the high altar and the choir screen, now unique in Alsace, which have also been maintained.
In 1780, the now nationally famous choir organ of Johann Andreas Silbermann was built (restored in 1948 and 1966 according to the rules of the Organ reform movement). Helmut Walcha recorded a large part of his performances of Bach's organ works here. The pulpit also dates from the same century, as well as another altar.
Between 1897 and 1901, the church, which had fallen into disrepair, was fundamentally overhauled by the Karlsruhe architect Carl Schäfer, one of the most important representatives of neo-Gothic sacred architecture in Germany. At that time, the entrance was moved to the side and a new main portal was created, a copy of the northern entrance of the facade of the Strasbourg Cathedral. The cloisters were painted in polychrome, following the example of the Hortus Deliciarum. The life-sized baptismal angel statue, along with the chapel and the choir glass windows, also date from this time.

Werninghausen: Das Mittagsläuten der Klosterkirche St. Wigbert
Die seit 1967 pfarrerlose und dem Verfall preisgegebene Dorfkirche St. Wigbert (Kirchenschiff von 1773-1776, Kirchturm von 1841) wurde ab 1973 von den Mönchen wiederaufgebaut, 1974 neu geweiht und dient als Pfarr- und Klosterkirche. Auf dem nicht mehr als Friedhof genutzten Kirchhof existieren auch eine Marienkapelle von 1984 und historische Grabsteine. Die Klostergebäude (mit einem kleinen Oratorium) wurden seit 1989 abschnittsweise errichtet. Das historische Pfarrhaus -in desolatem Zustand- war bereits in den 1970er Jahren von den Brüdern saniert worden. 1992 konnte unter starker Beteiligung der Bevölkerung feierlich der erste Bauabschnitt des Klosters eingeweiht werden. 2000 erfolgte die Weihe des zweiten Bauabschnitts. In der Marienkapelle haben auch russische Soldaten aus dem Stützpunkt in Haßleben gebetet, die allerdings nach einiger Zeit an die Staatsicherheit verraten wurden und deren Verbleib daraufhin unbekannt war. Diesem Ereignis, und auch den ökumenischen Bestrebungen der Brüder, wurde eine solche Bedeutung beigemessen, dass das Kloster auch einen kleinen Zwiebelturm erhielt, der an eine orthodoxe Kuppel erinnert. Im Jahr 2001 konnte das sechsstimmige Geläut der Kirche vollendet werden. Es gilt als schönstes Geläut in Thüringen.

Werningshausen, about 13 miles north of the town of Erfurt, is a village of about 800 inhabitants with a nice church. This is due to the activities of a young parson who came to Werningshausen in 1973. The church was then going to ruin and was to be pulled down, as had been done to the churches of the neighbouring villages. He founded a community the members of which repaired the church of Werningshausen and 20 other churches in the region. This was a signal to the villagers as well as to the authorities of the established church.
The members of the community had decided to live together according to the rules of the order of St. Benedict. As monks were unusual in the evangelical church it took lengthy discussions before the rules were approved in 1987 by Bishop Dr. Werner Leich, who had watched the work of the community with sympathy from its beginning in Hermsdorf in 1967. At the same time Pfarrer Franz Schwarz was appointed prior of the Fraternity of St. Wigberti. After much work and with the help of many donations the brethren settled down at Werningshausen in their own convent buildings which have been consecrated in 1992.

Esto se debe a las actividades de un cura joven que vino a Werningshausen en 1973. La iglesia luego fue cayéndose en ruinas, y debía ser derribada, como se había hecho con las iglesias de las aldeas vecinas. Se fundó una comunidad cuyos miembros repararon la iglesia de Werningshausen y 20 de otras iglesias de la región. Esta fue una señal para los habitantes del pueblo, así como a las autoridades de la iglesia establecida.
Los miembros de la comunidad habían decidido vivir juntos de acuerdo a las normas de la orden de San Benito. Como monjes eran inusuales en la iglesia evangélica tuvo largas discusiones antes de que las normas fueran aprobadas en 1987 por el obispo Dr. Werner Leich, que había observado el trabajo de la comunidad con la simpatía de sus inicios en Hermsdorf en 1967. Al mismo tiempo Pfarrer Franz Schwarz fue nombrado antes de la Fraternidad de San Wigberti. Después de mucho trabajo y con la ayuda de muchas donaciones los hermanos se establecieron en Werningshausen teniendo su propio convento en los edificios que habían sido consagrados en 1992.

STORYLINE
Tens of thousands of worshippers joined a stronger-looking Pope John Paul II in an open-air Sunday Mass he celebrated on his first foreign trip in nine months.
A large cheer went up from the crowd dominated by young Swiss Roman Catholics when the 84-year-old pope, sitting erectly in his chair and waving with his right hand, was rolled onto the large stage.
The cheering resumed to encourage the pontiff when he paused during the delivery of his remarks.
The trip was seen as a major test of John Paul's health, but he appeared stronger than he did during his last pilgrimage, to Slovakia in September, when he at times lost his breath, slumped in his chair and was unable to complete most of his speeches.
The pope, who has Parkinson's disease and crippling hip and knee ailments, omitted several sentences from the prepared text denouncing mistreatment of any human being, which could have been interpreted as new reference to prisoner abuse in Iraq by U.S. troops, which the pope last raised when he spoke to U.S. President George W. Bush last Friday.
A sea of flags waved from the crowd gathered in the Allmend meadow, a traditional gathering place in the capital, Bern.
Flags included those of Spain, Croatia, Colombia and Italy, as well as the rainbow peace flag, the red-and-white banner of the Pope's native Poland and the white-and-yellow emblem of the Vatican.
Some children dressed in the traditional costume of southern Poland, the pope's home region.
Moments before, hundreds of young people had rushed to the barrier along the road to cheer him wildly as he passed in his popemobile.
In a ceremony of singing and clapping, young people offered prayers in all four official Swiss languages - German, French, Italian and Romansch. They also prayed in Spanish, Portuguese and Albanian -the languages of the country's major immigrant groups.
Swiss Guards, recruited in this country and about to celebrate 500 years of guarding popes, stood near him in their orange-and-blue uniforms and red-plumed helmets.
Organisers said police estimated 70-thousand people gathered for the Mass.
The pope's visit to Switzerland, one of the historic centres of Protestantism, has met some grumbling, indicating tensions remain between Swiss Protestants and Catholics after five centuries.
Some 42.8 per cent of the Swiss are Protestant and 41.2 per cent Catholic.

Virgin Mary converts Harvard Professor Part 4 (Jewish Convert to Catholic)

Honey from the Rock:
Roy Schoeman grew up studying Judaism under the most prominent Rabbis in American Judaism. After receiving a B.S. from M.I.T. and an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School, he taught at Harvard. His conversion to Catholicism led to a dramatic refocus of his activities. He later encountered the Virgin Mary!! In his own words: Yet every night before going to sleep, I would say a short prayer to know the name of my Lord and Master and God whom I had met on the beach. A year to the day after the initial experience, I went to sleep after saying that prayer, and felt as though I was woken by a gentle hand on my shoulder, and escorted to a room where I was left alone with the most beautiful young woman I could imagine. I knew without being told that she was the Blessed Virgin Mary. I felt entirely awake (and my memory is as though I had been awake), although I was dreaming. I remember my first reaction, standing there awed by her presence and grandeur, was wishing I knew at least the Hail Mary so that I could honor her! She offered to answer any questions I had. I remember thinking about what to ask, asking the questions, and her answers. After speaking to me a while longer, the audience was ended. When I woke the next morning I was hopelessly in love with the Blessed Virgin Mary, and I knew that the God I had met on the beach was Christ, and, and that all I wanted was to be as much of, and as good a, Christian as possible. I still did not know anything about Christianity, nor the difference between the Catholic Church and any of the hundreds of Protestant denominations. It took me another two years or so to find my way to the Catholic Church, guided by my love and reverence for the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Fr. Terry Kraychuk: A Catholic Who Returned from the World - The Journey Home (05-17-2004)
Father Terry was born in Canada. Although he was canonically a Ukrainian Catholic he was mostly raised in the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church. At a young age he became obsessively interested in hockey, to the point that it became an idol. The death of his grandfather shook his faith. He began experimenting with drugs and was soon kicked out of high school. He bought a Harley and began riding and dealing drugs across Canada and the United States. While on top of a mountain in California, he was plunged into a moment of despair, leading him to read from Galatian. He was convicted of his sins but it took a year for him to complete his return to Christ. Father terry in now a hieromonk of the Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Also, in the leadership, in the governance of the church, there were failures. This is maybe the most important strong point of this communique.

The answer I think would be clarifying the rules and the charges of the (Papal) Nuncio. If this is not a part of his duty, you cannot expect from him to do something that is not his complete charge (part of his job).
11. Wide of media conference
12. Wide of St. Peter''s Basilica
STORYLINE:
Pope Benedict XVI condemned the sexual abuse of children and young people by Irish priests as a heinous crime on Tuesday.
In a communique read by Vatican spokesperson Father Federico Lombardi, the pontiff said that the abuse was a grave sin which offends God and wounds the dignity of the human person created in his image.
There had been failures in the leadership of the church, the communique said.
The Vatican statement came as the pope and Irish bishops ended an extraordinary meeting on the crisis meant to restore the trust of Irish Catholics shaken by revelations of decades of clergy sex abuse and cover-up.
Lombardi also defended the pope''s representative in Ireland, known as the Papal Nuncio, for refusing to testify to lawmakers there about decades of systematic covers-up by church hierarchy.
Asked if the issue of resignations came up, Lombardi said it was not addressed.
Victims had already warned the talks would be a failure unless the pope demanded resignations of bishops who had any role in concealing wrongdoing.
Lombardi said the Pope would send the Irish faithful a letter about the crisis sometime during Lent, the liturgical period of penitence that begins on Wednesday with the tradition of distributing ashes to faithful and ends on Easter Sunday.
Irish bishops scheduled a news conference for later on Tuesday, before they head back to Ireland before Ash Wednesday church services.
During the two-day summit behind closed doors at the Vatican, anger flared in Ireland over the refusal of papal envoy Archbishop Giuseppe Leanza to appear in the Irish parliament.
Leanza, who participated in the summit, told lawmakers in a letter published Monday he would not answer questions from the foreign affairs committee.
Leanza has faced heavy criticism in Ireland for ignoring letters from two state-ordered investigations into how the church suppressed reports of child abuse by parish priests and in Catholic-run residences for poor children.

19. Resistance
France Since 1871 (HIST 276)
If the extent of French collaboration during World War II has been obscured, so too has the nature of resistance. Although the communist Left represented the core of the resistance movement, resistors came from any different backgrounds, including in their ranks Catholics, Protestants, Jews and socialists. Unlike the relationship between de-Christianization and right-wing politics, in the case of the resistance there is no clear correlation between regional locations and cells of resistors. It has been argued that the definition of resistance itself should be broadened to include the many acts of passive resistance carried out by French civilians during the occupation.

The Protestant main church St. Michaelis, called Michel, is the most famous church in Hamburg and a landmark of the Hanseatic city, because it is clearly visible to sailors on incoming ships. It is considered important baroque church in northern Germany and is the Archangel Michael consecrated, as the large bronze statue above the main entrance is. He is depicted as a winner in the battle over Satan. The Michel is on the southern Neustadt between Ludwig-Erhard-Strasse, Krayenkamp and English plank.
On March 10, 1750 at 11:00 clock the church with unusually loud thunder was struck by lightning. Smoke and flames were observed from 12:45 clock. The fire could not be extinguished, the church tower collapsed zigzag. The main part of the tower fell on the church roof and set the church on fire, which was thus completely destroyed.
St. Michael's is in brick style erected, baroque central building with a monumental west tower. As recovery of the construction of 1762/86 she is the youngest of the five main churches in Hamburg with 2,500 seats and also the largest. The church has a cruciform plan with 44 m wide, 52 m long and 27 m high. The marble pulpit is the center of the room.

The tower hall entrance hall to the church, to climb up the tower and the crypt tour with ticket booth for sale brochure. The crypt vault houses since 1986, an exhibition of architectural history with models of the Church. In early 2000, the crypt was rebuilt and is now used for church services and concerts.
The 132-meter-high, characteristic steeple dominates the skyline of the city and was early on as a reference point on the sailing ships on the Elbe to Hamburg. In 106 meters above sea level is the tower platform, which offers a wide view over the city, they can be reached on foot via 453 steps or by elevator. At the highest point of the tower Webcameras are attached. The tower of St. Peter's Church is also 132 meters high, so that both can be considered as the second highest church towers in Hamburg; the highest is the memorial of St. Nicholas with 147.3 meters.
The clock in the church tower is the largest of its kind in Germany. It was developed by the Strasbourg company Ungerer produced, the owner of the grandfather of the famous graphic artist Tomi Ungerer was. Each of the four dials measuring eight feet in diameter, a large pointer has a length of 4.91 meters and a small of 3.60 m. Each of these pointers weighs 130 kilograms and is - as well as the surrounding digits - covered with gold leaf. For the clock tower there are two bells strike.
The Michel has five organs: a Marcussen organ in the concert gallery, a large Steinmeyer organ with its 85 registers, 5 manuals and 6674 pipes in the crypt of the romantic Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy organ and a remote station with General gaming table in the attic. On the 1st of Advent 2010 was also on the south gallery which Carl Phillip Emanuel Bach organ inaugurated.
On the esplanade of Michels provided with two gray protective coating hour bells of St Michael's Church from 1924 have been prepared that contained in the upper half of a circumferential aphorism. Suspension and clapper of the bell were damaged in World War II, and they are no longer useful. In 1974, two new Uhrschlag bells were installed in the bell tower. Furthermore, 178 brass plaques are in the bottom of the forecourt admitted (August 2014), which list the names of the donors in the Michel Foundation for renovation.
The present church is the third building in this place. The first was built between 1647 and 1669. He conviritió in the church of the new town (Neustadt), which was created in 1625 within the new city walls. In 1687 Der Michel became the fifth main church and the new city became parish. That church was destroyed on May 10, 1750 by lightning.

Werningshausen: Läuten zur Sext der lutherischen Klosterkirche St. Wigbert
Das Priorat Sankt Wigberti ist ein lutherisches Kloster in der Form eines ökumenischen Priorats, das seit den siebziger Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts in Werningshausen (Thüringen) aufgebaut wurde. Die Gemeinschaft lebt nach der Benediktsregel. Das Kloster trägt den Namen des heiligen Wigbert. Zur Gemeinschaft gehören lutherische und katholische Männer. Zeitweise lebten dort auch orthodoxe Brüder. Die Gemeinschaft hat sich insbesondere in der Sanierung und Rettung verfallener Kirchen in der EKM und in der Pflege altkirchlich liturgischer Traditionen verdient gemacht. Viermal am Tag wird im Priorat das Stundengebet gebetet: Um 7.oo, 12.oo, 18.oo und 19.3o Uhr.
1987 wurde die Regel und der Orden von der Ev.-luth. Kirche in Thüringen als erstes Benediktinerkloster nach der Reformation in Deutschland approbiert. Die Evangelische Kirche Mitteldeutschland (EKM) hat die Approbation 2009 bestätigt.
Die seit 1967 pfarrerlose und dem Verfall preisgegebene Dorfkirche St. Wigbert (Kirchenschiff von 1773-1776, Kirchturm von 1841) wurde ab 1973 von den Mönchen wiederaufgebaut, 1974 neu geweiht und dient als Pfarr- und Klosterkirche.
