Golden Anniversary of the Ordination of Rev. Reingard Knausenberger - 10 March 2024

by John-Peter Gernaat

Sunday 10 March marked the 50th anniversary of the day of the Ordination of Rev. Reingard Knausenberger. The day also marked her stepping back from carrying the responsibilities of a community and entering her retirement as a priest. Our Lenker, Rev. Oliver Steinrueck, was here to celebrate the occasion with Reingard and the community.

The celebrations were held in the Community Garden with coffee, tea and a wide selection of sweet and savoury treats. Reingard received gifts from the community; and from her colleagues; and from the other communities in the Region where she had served as Lenker for 17 years.

The photos show the handing over of gifts and accompanying speeches.
