"Cross and Crown of Thorns" is the sign of our community: under the cross we receive the forgiving love of Jesus anew every day - the thorns belong to Jesus' way of humility and also to the way of following the cross on which Jesus called His disciples.

Prayer - for our people, God's people Israel, reconciliation among the nations.
