On Sunday the Brasília Lutheran Community received very glad a group of 15 young Germans from the St. Johannis Community from Nuremberg, Germany.
The purpose of the interchange is to broaden the scope of relationships with Lutheran Christians of the European continent, especially in the country where Martin Luther lived, as well as closer ties of friendship, expand our understanding on the experience and familiarity with different cultures and learn about each other and mutually way to be "community."
The principal purpose of young Germans is to know the work of the Evangelical Youth group and join the CECLB subsidies to when they return to their city, they can start working with evangelical young group, which is currently nonexistent in the community.
The youths, whose flight was delayed and canceled, reached at the end of Sunday worship, and they were welcomed and greeted by the community and were able to present themselves. After the worship, they were invited to a coffee accompanied by cakes and cheese bread in the community hall.
The afternoon program gave to the young people time to know each other, with a retreat in the Felipe Sabo's house. Lunch with barbecue and side dishes and desserts typical of Brazil, including tropical fruits and coconut water, followed by leisure and relaxation, with soccer, volleyball, and a theatrical presentation that everybody liked.
