Seven Weeks for Water 2022, week 5: “Water – a blessing and a threat?”, by Peter Pavlovic

The fifth reflection of the Seven Weeks for Water 2022 of the WCC’s Ecumenical Water Network is written by Peter Pavlovic.* He reflects that  Europe is a water rich continent, still, a lot of concerns related to water availability persist in the region.  Climate change makes this problem worse, our vulnerability is, as the last IPCC report warns, increasingly exposed.  Faith describes the world as a gift of God given to humanity. Fragility of our existence is closely related to disrespecting the limits of the world in which we live and is rooted in the failure of our relationship with God.

Consultations with young people, participants in WCC events between the 10th and the 11th assemblies, and a number of church leaders have concluded that there is a need to provide an updated resource to get to know young people of today and to explore ways for the church to effectively engage the 18–30-year-old age group in the ecumenical movement.

Sieben Wochen im Zeichen des Wassers, Woche 4: “ Wasser für Frieden: eine konfessionsübergreifende Perspektive”, von Susanne Öhlmann

Die vierte Reflexion der Sieben Wochen im Zeichen des Wassers 2022 des Ökumenischen Wassernetzwerks des ÖRK wurde von Susanne Öhlmann* geschrieben. Sie sagt, Wasser und Frieden gleichen sich. Wir vermissen die beiden Dinge erst, wenn sie nicht mehr da sind. Zum einen beginnt Europa, ein wasserreicher Kontinent, gerade, die Einschränkungen einer Wasserverknappung zu bemerken, und zum anderen beginnen Frieden und Sicherheit in der Region als Folge des Krieges in der Ukraine zu bröckeln. Inspiriert durch den Propheten Amos betet sie darum, dass sich Frieden und Gerechtigkeit durchsetzen mögen.

Seven Weeks for Water 2022, week 4: “Water for peace: an interfaith perspective”, by Susanne Öhlmann

The fourth reflection of the Seven Weeks for Water 2022 of the WCC’s Ecumenical Water Network is written by Susanne Öhlmann.* She says water and peace are similar to each other. We do not miss them until they are absent. On one hand, Europe, a water rich continent, has started to feel the pinch of water shortages in recent times, and on the other, peace and security of the region has started to destabilize in the wake of war in Ukraine. Drawing inspiration from the prophet Amos, she prays for peace and justice to prevail.
