Photo 1 / Video: There is a Lutheran Church in Brodnica. Unfortunately I looked too late to see if and when they might have a service. It was at 9.00 am. So I went to the Catholic Church that was just three minutes away from where I was staying. About the only words I understood were God, Jesus Christ, thanks, I know, and amen. Regardless of what opion one might have of the established churches, Jesus in his day still went to the Temple and called it "my Father's House". So I went to "my Father's House" and prayed during the service for my Father's will to be done in Poland, in that church, and in the lives of the people who gather there week for week.

Photo 2: After the service I asked the alter server if the chuch might have a stamp for my pilgrim passport. They did not have one, but he took me to the other Catholic Church that was about 500 meters away...

Photo 3: Apparently there are more than one priest at this church. One was about to start the 11.00 am service. Another had the name that would be the English equivalent of "Jerry". He had this Sunday off, as can be verified by this photo. Still he opened the church office and stamped my passport. I told him I was a pastor and offered to pray for him and the ministry at the church, which he gladly accepted.

Photo 4: A view of the city center with the steeple of the other chuch in the background to the right.

Photo 5: I just received this picture from the church service in Kaunas on July 17th and post it now here...
