October 2013

A lot has happened since January of this year. A very special project was the publishing of the old Glorieklokken hymnal, a complete restauration project. It came out 50 years after the funeral of the original creator: Sister M.A.Alt. This hymnal has now as well some pages about the life of this missionary.
Another interesting change was, that I got the order from the city council of Rotterdam to produce 50 TV broadcasts with title: het gebedshuis van de week – the prayerhouse of the week. I take you each week to another religious house: churches, migrantchurches,mosqs, synagogue, etc. I enjoy making all these contacts in the city, and it is great to build bridges of understanding. Broadcasts are each Thursday on cable. Every edition is placed on www.station-r.nl; an edition is 25 minutes.
A new book came out: Geloof in de publieke Ruimte – Faith in the public arena. With a contribution of former prime-minister Jan Peter Balkenende.
And we had in June the end of the 6th season of our School of Rock. Great final productions. And in August we had again the 33rd edition of the annual Christian Artists Seminar, again a great week full of challenges and inspiration.
