Step into Holy Week with a candlelit, “old-school” service that’s honest, tactile, and deeply moving. Maundy Thursday is the night we remember Jesus’ **Last Supper**, hear his **new commandment** to love one another, and follow him toward the cross—ending in **Tenebrae** (darkness) as the sanctuary is stripped bare. ### What to expect This is traditional worship—hymns, spoken prayers, Scripture, silence, and a slow, reverent pace. You don’t need to know what to do. You can participate fully, participate quietly, or simply observe. ### Tonight includes * **The Last Supper** — Scripture and reflection on Jesus’ table and his love “to the end” * **Individual Absolution (one-on-one option)** — a brief, private moment to hear a personal word of forgiveness (optional) * **Footwashing** — a simple act of service and humility (optional; we also offer a more comfortable “hands-only” option if you prefer) * **Holy Communion** — bread and wine at Jesus’ table * **Tenebrae** — the altar is stripped, lights dim, candles are extinguished as the Passion is read, and we leave in silence ### Explicit welcome **All people are welcome—no exceptions.** That includes ALL people, skeptics, the spiritually exhausted, longtime church people, first-timers, English speakers and non-native speakers, families with kids, and anyone who isn’t sure what they believe but knows they need grace. ### Good to know * Participation in **holy communion, individual absolution** and **footwashing** is **completely optional**—no pressure, no spotlight. * Dress however you like. * Photos/recording: not during the service. Come as you are. Leave in silence. And let this night carry you into Good Friday.

The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other. The Sprachcafé is for free. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|

**Book Club** For **LGBTQIA+** **[Free with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/book-club/w15-2026)** **“Box Hill” by Adam Mars-Jones (2020)** In 1975, eighteen-year-old Colin meets the older biker Ray on Box Hill. Their chance encounter leads to a six-year, tightly controlled relationship in which power, dependence and intimacy intertwine. Told two decades later, the novel offers a nostalgic yet unsparing portrait of a male world shaped by motorcycle racing, power games and dry British humour. This story of a problematic SM relationship inspired the movie “Pillion” by Harry Lighton. On the Sunday of his eighteenth birthday, in 1975, Colin takes a walk on Box Hill, a biker hang-out in Surrey. There he accidentally trips over Ray, a biker napping under a tree. From the very first moment, the natural authority of the older man in leather exerts an irresistible attraction on Colin. The consequences are his first sexual experience, his first ride on a Norton Commando and his first relationship. On the very same day, he moves in with him – the beginning of a six-year, strictly regimented coupledom in which the boundaries between submission and security dissolve. Told with a time lag of almost twenty years, “Box Hill” depitcs a male idyll of unbridled motorcycle racing, draconian power games and dirty poker rounds with nostalgia, tenderness a charming dose of British humour. **Book Club** Fur **LGTBQIA+** **[Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/book-club/w15-2026)** **„Box Hill“ von Adam Mars-Jones (2020)** Diese Geschichte einer problematischen SM-Beziehung inspirierte den Film „Pillion“ von Harry Lighton. Am Sonntag seines achtzehnten Geburtstags im Jahr 1975 macht Colin einen Spaziergang auf dem Box Hill, einem Treffpunkt für Motorradfahrer in Surrey. Dort stolpert er versehentlich über Ray, einen Motorradfahrer, der unter einem Baum ein Nickerchen macht. Die natürliche Autorität des deutlich älteren Mannes mit der Lederkluft übt vom ersten Moment an eine unbezwingbare Anziehungskraft auf Colin aus. Die Folgen sind seine erste sexuelle Erfahrung, seine erste Fahrt auf einer Norton Commando und seine erste Beziehung. Noch am selben Tag zieht er bei Ray ein – der Beginn einer sechs Jahre andauernden, streng reglementierten Zweisamkeit, in der sich die Grenzen zwischen Unterwerfung und Geborgenheit auflösen. Mit einem Zeitlichen Abstand von knapp zwanzig Jahren erzählt, enthüllt „Box Hill“ ein Männerwelt-Idyll aus ungebremsten Motorrad-Rennfahrten, drakonischen Machtspielen und versauten Poker-Runden mit Nostalgie, Zärtlichkeit und einer charmanten Portion britischen Humors.

**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.

Come celebrate Easter Sunday — the heart of the Christian year and the joyful proclamation that Christ is risen. We gather in festival worship with traditional liturgy, triumphant hymns, proclamation of the resurrection, and Holy Communion. Easter is not only a day of celebration, but the great turning point of the Christian story: light breaking into darkness, life overcoming death, hope rising where despair once stood. ### Why Easter Matters Easter proclaims the central confession of the Christian faith: **Jesus Christ is risen from the dead.** This is not only a memory of something long ago. It is the promise that God is still at work in the world — bringing life where there is death, healing where there is brokenness, and hope where there is fear. Easter declares that no darkness has the final word. ### A Festival of Resurrection Our Easter service follows the historic shape of Christian worship: * Scripture readings that tell the story of resurrection * Proclamation of the good news * Prayers of thanksgiving and hope * Joyful hymnody * Holy Communion — the feast of the risen Christ At the table, we are invited to share in Christ’s victory and to receive again the promise of new life. ### Holy Communion All who seek Christ are welcome at the table. You do not need to be a member of the church. If you are baptized in any Christian tradition, you are invited to receive Communion. If you would like a blessing instead, simply come forward with your arms crossed. *** Come and hear the greatest story ever told. Come and sing with joy. Come and taste the feast of resurrection. **Christ is risen!** **He is risen indeed!** All are welcome! We mean it... ALL!

I am thinking of those of us who are away from home and family during the holiday season. I'm in the same position. I can't have us celebrating Easter alone so let's get together at the Easter Brunch at Nest to have our own "family time". The Nest Brunch is always extensive and varied with vegan options. It is 22.50 euros per head for food and drinks are extra. Please Rsvp if you are coming and cancel the Rsvp if you are not as we need to book a table and the restaurant will be busy so there will be less flexibility than usual. Times: 12.00 to 14.00 is the BBW Meetup. From 14. 00 to 16.00 I will be joined by friends from a variety of backgrounds and you are welcome to stay and join us xx

**Das Treffen ist offen für w/m/d Personen.** Die Selbsthilfegruppe Berlin Prenzlauer Berg findet diesmal ausnahmsweise am Sonntag im Monat von 16:00 bis 18:00 statt. Zum Thema: **„Ja“ zu mir selbst – Die Kunst, freundlich „Nein“ zu sagen** Fällt es dir manchmal leichter, anderen einen Gefallen zu tun, als auf deine eigenen Grenzen zu achten? Oft sagen wir „Ja“, um niemanden zu enttäuschen – und zahlen am Ende mit unserer eigenen Energie. In unseren zwei Stunden wollen wir gemeinsam herausfinden, warum uns ein „Nein“ oft so schwerfällt und wie wir es lernen können, ohne schlechtes Gewissen Grenzen zu setzen. Wir arbeiten lösungsorientiert, wertschätzend und mit einer Prise Leichtigkeit. Du gehst nicht nur mit neuem Wissen, sondern mit konkreten „Micro-Skills“ für deinen Alltag nach Hause.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
