I hope you enjoyed the last episode. I thought it would be interesting, for my German listeners, to hear Thomas directly. You can get an idea of his relationship with his mother, and his understanding of the Bible, at such a young age. Then, I also know, that some of you understand and speak German, because you learned it when you lived at the Trudering house. So this was a little challenge, to refresh your language skills, and perhaps your memories of Thomas. My granddaughter, that was born after he passed away, said she feels like she is getting to know him through the podcast. How cool is that! I told her that I too, have gotten to know other sides of him, that I wasn’t aware in those days. I am still learning today, from his example!
Since I started telling our story of moving to Munich, I keep discovering through letters and tapes, more details about how the Lord was leading the circumstances. It was such a leap of faith that brought us into a whole new world of opportunities.
Like I explained to Caitlin in our past video conversation, Thomas and I were not driven by our own ambitions, but by a desire to fulfill the mission that the Lord had given us. Soon after we came to Munich, God opened the door for a job to Thomas, that was suited to the music education he had grown up with. He didn’t even have an officialgraduation diploma, from the high school, which is called “Gymnasium”.
