Heidelberg Castle
On Thursday, I will be traveling to the Netherlands and Germany as Dr. Jason VanVliet and I are leading a tour there, in conjunction with Witte Travel, of about 40 people in commemoration of the 450th anniversary of the Heidelberg Catechism. My wife Mary and daughter Lydia will be joining the tour on Saturday. At the end of the tour, there will be a conference in Heidelberg on the catechism. The first Sunday, July 14, I will be preaching in Genemuiden, the Netherlands, with Rev. Elshout translating the sermon into Dutch, and the second Sunday, July 21, I will be preaching on Lord’s Day 1 and Dr. VanVliet on Lord’s Day 52 in the actual Heidelberg Castle where Frederick first read the catechism aloud to many Reformed ministers and theologians from around Europe and it was unanimously accepted.
On July 22, I will be flying from Germany to Cardiff, Wales, to do a conference there (July 23–26), followed by a conference in London, England (July 27–28), after which I will be flying back to the Netherlands to spend a few days of meetings there. Meanwhile, Mary and Lydia will be visiting various sites in Europe and will rejoin me in the Netherlands. We hope to fly home together on July 31. Your prayers are coveted.
