American Expats

Hej! Auf diesem Spaziergang unterhalten wir uns auf schwedisch. Vi möts vid hållplatsen Glienicker Lake och går längs stranden mot Pfaueninsel. På vägen kommer vi förbi Krughorn och Moorlake och njuter av de fantastiska utsikter mot Sacrow Slott och Heilandskirche. Vi tar färjan och går runt ön ett varv. Tillbaka på fastlandet kan vi spontant bestämma att luncha ihop på restaurangen Wirtshaus zur Pfaueninsel. Kolla vädret i förväg och klä dig efter det. Wir treffen uns an der Bushaltestelle Glienicker Lake und laufen am Ufer entlang bis zur Pfaueninsel, die wir einmal umrunden. Unterwegs genießen wir die schönen Ausblicke. Wenn wir wollen können wir nach dem Spaziergang noch im Wirtshaus zur Pfaueninsel essen gehen.

Good Friday is the raw heart of Holy Week: we gather in reverence and simplicity to hear the story of Jesus’ passion, to pray for the world, and to stand at the cross without rushing to Easter. This is **old-school worship**—Scripture, hymns, solemn prayers, a stripped-down sanctuary, and long, honest silence. We leave quietly. ### What to expect A contemplative service centered on the **Passion narrative** and the cross. You don’t need church experience. You won’t be singled out. You can participate fully, participate quietly, or simply sit and listen. ### Tonight includes * **The Passion of Jesus** — the Scripture story of Jesus’ arrest, trial, crucifixion, and death * **Solemn Reproaches** — an ancient, haunting litany that names the world’s betrayal and God’s faithful love, with sung/spoken responses * **Solemn prayers for the world** — intercessions for the church, nations, the suffering, and all in need * **Veneration of the Cross** — an optional moment to come forward and reverence the cross (touch, bow, light a candle, or simply pause—your choice) * **Silence and departure** — we end without announcements, without applause, without a “wrap-up” ### Explicit welcome **All people are welcome—no exceptions.** That ALL people, doubters, the burned-out, the curious, longtime Christians, first-time visitors, English speakers and non-native speakers, families with kids, and anyone carrying grief or questions. ### Good to know * The **cross veneration** is **optional**—no pressure, no spotlight. * Dress however you like. * This service can be emotionally heavy; if you need to step out for a moment, that’s completely okay. * Photos/recording: not during the service. Come as you are. Stand at the cross. And let the silence speak.

**Join Us for Sunday Worship at the American Church in Berlin!** The American Church in Berlin (ACB) is an **ecumenical Protestant congregation** where people from *many* Christian traditions worship together—Lutheran, Reformed/Presbyterian, Anglican/Episcopal, Methodist, Baptist, non-denominational, Roman Catholic, and even a few Eastern Orthodox members. Wherever you come from, you’ll find a place where you can feel at home. Our worship is **traditional and liturgical**, rooted in the rich patterns of the Christian church and easy for both Protestants and Roman Catholics to enjoy. We celebrate **Holy Communion every Sunday and every festival day**, and all baptized Christians are welcome at the Lord’s Table. ACB is an **extraordinarily diverse congregation**, with members from around the world. On any given Sunday you’ll find long-time Berlin residents, young adults, teenagers who attend on their own, families with children, seniors, and many visitors and tourists passing through the city. Our community is known for its **warm and friendly fellowship**—it’s one of the things people talk about most after visiting. Some folks dress formally and others show up in jeans and sneakers; we sit side by side without judgment. **Come exactly as you are.** Most importantly: **our welcome is for everybody—EVERYBODY.** If you’re looking for a church home, a place to pray, just looking to connect, or simply a peaceful hour of worship during your travels, you’re invited. We’d love to welcome you this Sunday! [ACB website](www.americanchurchberlin.de)

Hola, gente bonita 🫶 Lass uns ein Bier trinken, Spanisch-Deutsch sprechen und eine gute Zeit genießen! Grundlegende (oder bessere 😛) Kenntnisse in Spanisch oder Deutsch sind alles, was du brauchst. Vamos a tomar una cerveza, hablar español-alemán y pasarla bien! Un nivel básico (o mejor 😛) de español o alemán es lo único que necesitas.

The Easter Vigil is the church’s oldest and most powerful Easter celebration—the night where we move from **darkness to light**, from **death to life**, and from **silence to joy**. We begin outside (weather permitting) with **new fire**, listen to the big story of God’s saving love through Scripture, renew baptismal promises, and finally sing the **first “Alleluia!”** of Easter. And when the service ends, the celebration keeps going: **stay for Easter Midnight Brunch**—a warm, festive (and very human) way to welcome Easter together. ### What to expect A longer service than usual (and worth it): candlelight, readings, music, prayer, and a joyful turn into Easter. You can participate fully, participate quietly, or simply observe—then come share food and conversation after. ### Tonight includes * **Service of Light** — **new fire** (a big fire in front of the church), the Paschal candle, and candlelit procession into the dark church * **The Great Story (Readings)** — a sweeping set of Scripture readings tracing God’s faithfulness (creation, deliverance, promise, hope) * **Baptismal Thanksgiving / Renewal of Baptism** — water, promises, and the reminder that Easter begins at the font * **First Alleluia** — the return of “Alleluia!” after Lent, and the proclamation of the resurrection * **Holy Communion** — bread and wine at Jesus’ table as Easter begins * **Easter Midnight Brunch** — good food and drink, treats, and a chance to celebrate and connect ### Explicit welcome **All people are welcome—no exceptions.** That includes ALL people, skeptics, seekers, exhausted Christians, first-timers, English speakers and non-native speakers, families with kids, and anyone who just needs a place where hope is practiced out loud. ### Good to know * This service is **candlelit**—kids are welcome (and wiggly is okay). * If we begin outside, dress for the weather. * You’re always free to step out for a breather. * Photos/recording: not during the service. If you’ve never experienced the Vigil, this is the night that makes Easter make sense—and brunch is the cherry on top.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."

Ciao a tutt\*! Let's meet Monday at 6.30pm at the Upper Arlington Library (Tremont Branch) in **Meeting Room A** to speak in Italian for 1 hour.

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings.

Together, we celebrate diversity, cultivate understanding, and inspire each child to live with purpose and compassion. Parents and families are invited to join in this uplifting journey of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.
