Dear Pilgrim:<br />
Rev. Ken & Jan Kliever<br />
This is a one in every 10 year trip. To be part of the<br />
Oberammergau Passion Play and to follow the steps of the<br />
reformers that taught us Grace is efficient. They also taught us<br />
to have a personal relationship with our Lord. From Munich to<br />
Geneva you will appreciate the ones who taught us our theology<br />
that we live by.<br />
We have added an Pre Extension that will be fun and sad. We<br />
will visit one of the lakes that will be one of our beauty days.<br />
Then we will visit Dachau, one of the concentration camps that<br />
will be hard to understand, but must be remembered.<br />
Our Post Extension also takes us to a day on a lake. This too<br />
will be a beauty day. The next will be a visit to the Red Cross.<br />
This will be a time to see how they are ready for the next<br />
tragedy.<br />
Join us as this will be a pilgrimage that will not be forgotten.<br />
