Invitation Willo 2010

It’s time again, time for Willofreak! From the 13th to the 16th of May 2010 the family is gathering, like last year at the new Freakstock venue – beds for everyone, family rooms for everyone with kids.
There will be plenty of possibilities to be creative: If you would like to offer a workshop please contact us: workshops@freakstock.de . If you want to help and work as “staff” of Willo then register as MA (staff). You’ll find the registration here: www.willo.freakstock.de

Take your heels – and cannonball! – That’s the motto!

Jesus Freaks were never known to be particularly impressed by signs like „No splash diving“ or „Please swim clockwise“. On the contrary: when we landed in the big Christian paddling pool, it was with a head-on cannonball and we have made waves that roll till this day. Even if we have learnt not to jump right on people’s heads or necks in the meantime, we still appreciate a good cannonball and are still keen on making waves. Could this possibly be connected to the fact that we have a God whom the lifeguards of this world would certainly have banned from the swimming pool? A God who likes a good wave and prefers a lot of motion to static aquarobics? After the Willo we will know more, and if everything goes well we will continue to splash dive without bathing cap.

Workshops Freakstock 2010 needed!

In this year the Freakstock-theme will be called „Beine in die Hand” (legs in your hands) - which means something like “hurry up” or “run away fastly” but also „let´s get it started” or “take your chance” (running away from god, evangelisation, social engagement, breakup, …). Impressions like these will lead us through the four Freakstock-day-sermons. We want the headline “Beine in die Hand” also to be cognizable as the recurrent theme through most of our workshops.

The sick messenger 5/09

Hello,

the latest Sick Messenger is out now!

*** Saints like you and me
Saints are special Christians, that could become role models in faith. It is about the question: Can I become more like Jesus, but stay human at the same time?
In Catholic and Orthodox churches they have this tradition in worshipping saints. Norbert Roth is going to explain why this is usually no idolatry and why it is good for our faith to know more about the biographies of saints.

*** Festivals

This was Slot Art Festival

In an impressing abbey and castle complex near Wroclaw, the Slot Art Festival took place from 8 to 11 July 2009. Although it was founded by the Steiger Mission (known by “Rockpriest” David Pierce), the festival consciously tries not to confront visitors with the Christian faith in a straightforward manner. There is an almost wasteful variety of workshops. About 3000 visitors engage in handicraft, art, dance, politics, culture, music and – more or less – also in the power that has made this spectacle possible: the faith in Jesus Christ.

Freakstock with a surplus – Freakfest and Upfest with a deficit

Borgentreich – Freakstock has closed this year with a surplus. The festival promoters, the „Dream Team“ under the direction of Henrik Begemann, shows itself highly satisfied. „We thank you all and above all we thank Jesus, of course. Thank you to all who came, but we also know other times and this not so very long ago!“ it says in an E-mail by the Dream Team. Therefore Freakstock asks this year every festival participant to donate for the partner festivals: for the Freakfest in the Czech Republic and the Upfest in the Ukraine.

What's inside?

*** Jesus
"Cross your heart – and let's be honest" is the motto of this
Freakstock, also called "the Jesus festival". Accordingly, this edition
of The Sick Messenger is about an honest account of our relationship to
the Lord. If you have the feeling that it has once been more passionate,
maybe you will be interested in Martin Dreyer's advice on how to keep
your Jesus fire burning.
