  10. Abschied aber kein Lebewohl – A farewell, but not goodbye forever

    (English below)

    Am Pfingstmontag, 25.5.2026, fanden in unserer St. Concordia-Kirche zu Ruhla zwei Verabschiedungen im Gottesdienst statt.
    In einer feierlichen Zeremonie wurde zunächst die Kantorkatechetin verabschiedet. Sie hat 20 Jahre lang mit Kindern und Familien gearbeitet und war zudem für die Kirchenmusik verantwortlich. Doch nachdem sie vor 25 Jahren in den Ruhestand getreten war, hat sie noch ein Vierteljahrhundert die Orgel bei Gottesdiensten, Hochzeiten, Trauerfeiern etc. gespielt. Dafür wurde ihr vom Superintendent des Kirchenkreises herzlich gedankt und ihr Engagement gewürdigt.

    Die zweite Verabschiedung galt Pfarrer Reuther, der nach 22 Jahren Dienst in Ruhla Ende Juni 2026 in den Ruhestand geht.
    Auch wenn sein Dienst in Ruhla endet, bedeutet das nicht das Ende des Bildungsprojekts in Ruanda! Der Ökumenische Eine-Welt-Kreis bleibt weiterhin bestehen und wird das Projekt in der gewohnten Weise fortführen. Mehr noch, Pfarrer Reuther bleibt Mitglied des Eine-Welt-kreises und wird die Leitung des Projekts behalten.

    Beide Ruheständler hatten sich von den Besuchern und Gästen des Verabschiedungsgottesdienstes gewünscht, daß sie auf Geschenke verzichten, dafür aber eine Spende zu geben. Dafür hatten sie zwei Zwecke vorgegeben. Ein Zweck davon war unser Bildungsprojekt in Ruanda und wir sind dankbar für alle Spenden in Höhe von rund 800 Euro, die für unser Ruanda-Projekt gespendet wurden.



    On Whit Monday, 25 May 2026, two farewells took place during the service at our St Concordia Church in Ruhla.
    In a solemn ceremony, the cantor-catechist was first bid farewell. She had worked with children and families for 20 years and was also responsible for church music. However, after retiring 25 years ago, she continued to play the organ for another quarter of a century at church services, weddings, funerals and other occasions. The superintendent of the church district expressed his heartfelt thanks to her and paid tribute to her dedication.

    The second farewell was for Pastor Reuther, who is retiring at the end of June 2026 after 22 years of service in Ruhla.
    Even though his ministry in Ruhla is coming to an end, this does not mean the end of the education project in Rwanda! The Ecumenical One World Circle will continue to exist and will carry on the project in the usual way. What is more, Pastor Reuther will remain a member of the One World Circle and will continue to lead the project.

    Both retirees had asked the visitors and guests at the farewell service to refrain from bringing gifts and instead to make a donation. They had specified two causes for this. One of these was our education project in Rwanda, and we are grateful for all the donations totalling around 800 euros that were made to our Rwanda project.

  19. Ali Laricani's mother bids a final farewell to her son, captured in poignant footage. #Farewell #AliLaricani

  20. Okay… I promised @rnbwkat I wouldn’t cry when she posted this. But who are we kidding? I’m a flamingo with a soft heart, and the tears are already coming.

    This will be my last @bsideschicago as your official hacking flamingo. My last time leading a Flamingo Hunt. My last time strutting across the Hilton stage in full pink glory. 🦩

    I’ve loved every moment of it — watching you solve puzzles, cheering on first-time speakers, sneaking stickers into your hands, and reminding you that security can be fun, inclusive, and full of joy!!

    So yes, I’ll cry. But they’ll be flamingo tears of gratitude. Because you gave me a family here.

    Join Kat and me for one last Flamingo Uprising:
    - Oct 31 workshops
    - Nov 1 conference

    Let’s cry together, laugh together, and make this flock fly higher than ever before.

    Because after this year, I may fly off on world adventures… but a piece of my heart will always stay right here in Chicago. bsideschicago.org

  21. I’ve been putting this off because it makes me cry every time I think about it.

    BSidesChicago has been one of the greatest joys of my life — building something bigger than myself, watching first-time speakers shine, seeing careers launched in the Career Village, and feeling this community come together year after year. Sasha and I have poured our hearts into this conference, and you’ve given us back so much more than we ever imagined.🦩

    But it’s time. 2025 will be the last #BSidesChicago for me and for @sashatheflamingo 😔

    I already know I’ll cry when the day comes. Probably during the welcome remarks, definitely during the locknote, maybe even during the Flamingo Hunt. But they’ll be tears of gratitude — for the speakers who’ve trusted us with their voices, the volunteers who’ve given everything, the sponsors who believed in us, and every single one of you who showed up to learn, connect, and be part of this flock.

    And if we’re going out, we’re going out BIG:

    - Workshops on Oct 31 — a whole day to roll up your sleeves and learn.
    - Conference on Nov 1 — Tarah Wheeler, John Hammond, villages, hunts, lockpicking, CTFs, and more flamingo energy than ever.

    If you’ve been waiting for the right year to come to @bsideschicago this is it. Come laugh, come learn, come cry with me. Let’s make this last one unforgettable!!!

    Because this isn’t just a conference. It’s family!!

  23. Talking of Tom Waits has reminded me of the recent passing of Robert Wilson who worked with Tom amongst many others. Of course probably *the* big thing he co-created with Philip Glass was the production of Einstein on the Beach #Farewell #RobertWilson #arts #PhilipGlass youtube.com/watch?v=b26E0D2pm1

  27. Love will last forever. Now the little cubone is on it's own.
    Liebe bis zur Ewigkeit. Nun ist das kleine Tragosso auf sich gestellt.
