Rückblick und Ausblick zum (Un)Ruhestand – A look back and a look ahead at active retirement
(English below)
Nach über 40 Jahren ist es soweit: ich gehe demnächst in den Ruhestand. Aber die Arbeit des Ökumenischen Eine-Welt-Kreises für unser Bildungsprojekt in Ruanda geht weiter!
Ich werde dem Eine-Welt-Kreis weiterhin angehören und die Leitung des Projekts fortführen.
Gleichwohl ist diese Zäsur Gelegenheit gewesen, zurück und auch nach vorn zu schauen. Dazu hatte ich Gelegenheit, im Radio ein längeres Interview (Das Ruanda-Projekt, Autor: Djuana Mannel) zu geben und ich lade Sie ein, dieses mit Hilfe dieses Links anzuhören. Die musikalischen Einlagen wurden in diesem Podcast entfernt. Die ausführliche Sendung mit Liedern unserer Patenkinder wird zu folgenden Terminen beim Wartburgradio wiederholt: 12.05. 10-11.15 Uhr; 16.05. 15-16.15 Uhr; 18.05. 16-17.15 Uhr
After more than 40 years, the time has come: I am retiring soon. But the work of the Ecumenical One World Circle on our educational project in Rwanda continues!
I will remain a member of the One World Circle and continue to lead the project.
Nevertheless, this turning point has been an opportunity to look back and also to look ahead. I had the chance to give a longer interview on the radio (Das Ruanda Projekt, author: Djuana Mannel – in German only) and I invite you to listen to it via this link, in case you understand German. The musical interludes have been removed from this podcast. The full programme, featuring songs by our sponsored children, will be repeated on Wartburg Radio on the following dates: 12 May, 10.00–11.15 am; 16 May, 3.00–4.15 pm; 18 May, 4.00–5.15 pm (German only)

The incubation period is up to 6 weeks after exposure. This virus has potential to spread.
All the practices that should have become routine after COVID - attention to hand and surface hygiene, monitoring air quality in enclosed spaces, using air purifiers, wearing masks where possible in enclosed & high risk settings - would greatly minimise risk of transmission of any new or existing infectious disease.
If these practices are not part of your life already - or of a school, business, hospitality venue or medical facility you are responsible for or frequent - it’s always a good time to start. Right now, in flu season (in Australia) with so many respiratory viruses about, especially so.
We may feel invulnerable, but others are not. Whose welfare do we care about?
