It’s December.. it has been so for a long time already .. It just doesn’t feel as usual as I still sometimes sit and work in the sun outside on the terrace. But it’s getting colder and the warm socks and the gloves are now being used.
Two weeks ago we took part in a Christmas market in the German church, Redeemer Church, where we have our Danish services. We had our own booth, which we prepared the night before the market in the pastors apartment.
At the Christmas market we sold a lot of Danish goods which Danish visitors have brought to us. There were many people coming by to buy a lot of these things that aren’t easy to find down here. Many people visited this Christmas market – even an orthodox Jew found his way in here – that, I did not expect.
Last Saturday we were in the Christmas spirit again. We had a Danish service, which was very well attended, and subsequently we made waffles and Christmas decorations. It is great to help creating a Christmas atmosphere in a country where very few people celebrate Christmas
