Deacon Tim Reaman is serving as a host for the fifth time for the Wittenberg English Ministry (WEM) in Wittenberg, Germany until the beginning of August. WEM conducts Lutheran-led, English-language worship and chapel services at the historic Lutheran churches in Wittenberg from April-October annually.
We are in our third week and some of the attendance numbers at the services have been a little surprising. While we anticipated significantly smaller crowds and tour groups following the 2017 Jubilee year, we have been blessed with above average attendance.
