January 2017 Update
Friends, This blog started as a hobby when I was living in Germany back in 2006. Trixi and I had gotten married the year before, ... now look at us: 11 years later we are back in Germany!!! And there's three of us now: God has given us a beautiful daughter -- Albulena -- now 16 months old and she is simply a joy! I am babysitting her these days, and it is absolutely wonderful! Obviously before my sabbatical there was no realistic prospect to keep the blog going as I was working full-time in pastoral ministry, church planting and administration. I don't know whether I will be able to get back to regular blogging, but I will at least try to publish some quality posts in the future... Hope that all of you are doing well and I hope I will be able to make some updates in the weeks /months ahead... God bless! Julian
