Warming the Heart: The Sisters of St Charles Borromeo and the German-speaking Community in Jerusalem

The congregation of the Sisters of St. Charles Borromeo runs the German Hospice in Jerusalem. This community is the spiritual heart of the German-speaking community living in the Holy City. It is also a reference point for many local Christian families, whose youngest children are housed in the kindergarten attached to the convent; and finally, for German-speaking pilgrims, who stay here.

On 23 September, while inaugurating the new heating system, a state-of-the-art work realised thanks to the contribution of the German government, with great delicacy, the sisters were able to create a moment of sharing. A moment to dream together about the future, without giving up, to thank the German embassy for the closeness offered to them every day and to complete this ambitious project. But also to be with their Benedictine brothers, and so many friends who participate, in one way or another, in the life of the German-speaking community.
