Slow down the pace

A visit to the highway church in Hegau

After a TV interview near Herrenberg, I drive south to Constance. The next lecture will take place in the evening in the Petrus- und Paulusgemeinde. Bright blue sky. A sign on the side of the road: Autobahnkirche. I have to go there.

Founded by Protestant and Catholic Christians, the church is open to visitors 365 days a year. The text in the entrance area tells of the Emmaus disciples’ encounter with a surprising companion on Easter Sunday. “Wasn’t our heart burning?” This means that we can all walk with Jesus Christ.

The hall is empty, a few candles are lit at the back. There are three books about Diospi Suyana on the table in the modern ambience. We too have experienced much with the Crucified and Risen One. When I let the images fly across the screen in Constance at 7:30 p.m., it won’t be about a hospital, a school or a media center. In reality, I want to talk about HIM, because He is the only hope we have at Diospi Suyana. /KDJ
