Yiddish Sounds, Prayer and Hope: An Evening Prayer that Touches
In quiet anticipation, we gather for the evening prayer and open our hearts and minds for a religious experience where music, prayer, and theology resonate together. The spiritual community in Ansbach-Eyb invites you to share the sorrow and joy of Yiddish songs as a faith experience.
Yiddish Songs Between Comfort and Joy of Life
With warm tones and fine dynamics, Susanne Luckhardt and Bruno Arnold interpret Yiddish songs and instrumental pieces. The well-known song 'Oyfn veg shteyt a boym' – shaped by the poetry of Itzik Manger – unfolds a dense spiritual atmosphere: images of the bent tree, of departure and hesitation, of care and freedom. The music carries through moments of reflection and opens spaces for communal prayer and inner gathering.
Impulses from Theology and Pastoral Care
Texts and spiritual impulses by Pastor Ulrike Bracks frame the liturgy. In clear words, she interprets the tradition of Yiddish songs in the light of biblical hope, connecting comfort and encouragement, and strengthening the sense of community. Thus, a solemn celebration unfolds where spirituality and everyday faith converge.
Experience Community – Accessible and Inclusive
The Evangelical Lutheran Congregation St. Lambertus in Ansbach-Eyb invites all interested parties. The venue at the community house is accessible (elevator, step-free access). After the service, there will be an opportunity for discussion about faith practices, liturgy, and the theological depth of Yiddish songs.
Understanding Tradition – Deepening Faith
Yiddish music carries memory, prayer, and culture. It speaks of preservation and departure, of the power of comfort. In the service, this religious tradition is respectfully embedded – as a spiritual exercise that sharpens our awareness of God's closeness in everyday life.
