We still are trying to meet with people despite the tightened lockdown. We can have single people over for fires. We asked Sibylle if she would like to come and it took about a milli-second for her to say yes. At the end of the 2 hours we somehow got on the subject of baptism. She had only ever experienced baby sprinkling so when we explained the idea of the old man dying and the new rising out of the water she could grasp the idea with sprinkling in mind but when we explained immersion, she thought it was fascinating.
Another man, who little or no faith, came over. We usually see each other several times a year including the Christmas Eve service but not in 2020. His wife has moved out and the son (17 yr.old) goes back and forth. He opened up about it.
We also have been watching movies with the Syrian Family. We can have 2 over if only one of us is there. We use the bigger room that is off the backyard and that the church uses. It has a screen and we use our projector. It is good to keep in contact with them. The kids are not in school and he is unemployed so they have almost no contact with anyone outside the family.
