Unexpected appreciation

At the Tiny House in our parish garden, we were invited by a member of the Bundestag to meet a federal minister. We had prepared the meeting with a lot of love. In addition to the go4peace network, two other committed groups from our city were invited to take part in the dialogue. I decided to give the other groups a good platform and to give them priority when talking and presenting. This sign of appreciation touched the hearts and created a real family atmosphere. At the end of the event, the representative of a refugee initiative said: ‘I would like to mention that in 2015, when all the refugees arrived, you, who have been actively living for peace as go4peace for so long, gave us the heart to turn to these new people in our city. Today - 9 years later - I would just like to say THANK YOU for that.’
