The advantage is a family atmosphere during the service, which in a smaller group is often an interactive Bible study. Afterwards there is a chance to fellowship and have a meal together, like we did last Sabbath at our small Bielefeld group. (Bielefeld is about 70 miles southwest of Hannover on the A2 Autobahn.) We don&#8217;t meet in Bielefeld, though &ndash; we never have, even though that is what the congregation is called. This is one of the locations where I take the train to services. My morning this past Sabbath looked like this:<\/p>\n<p>&bull; 4:30 a.m. &ndash; alarm sounds, time to get out of bed;<br \/>&bull; 5:40 a.m. &ndash; left my apartment for the Siegburg-Bonn train station;<br \/>&bull; 6:14 a.m. &ndash; train from Siegburg-Bonn to Cologne-Deutz, change trains;<br \/>&bull; 6:50 a.m. &ndash; train from Cologne-Deutz to Hamm, change trains;<br \/>&bull; 8:16 a.m. &ndash; train from Hamm to Paderborn, change trains;<br \/>&bull; 9:15 a.m. &ndash; train to Bad Pyrmont, arriving at 10:01 a.m. <\/p>\n<p>From there it was about a 20 minute walk to the member&#8217;s home where we had our service, which began at 11:00 a.m. and ended about 1:15 p.m. After that, it was time to enjoy lunch. In the late afternoon I made the same trip in reverse to get back home by about 9:00 p.m. or so. All in a Sabbath day&#8217;s &quot;work&quot;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After my last post I couldn&#8217;t write another post about food or eating &ndash; at least not in the headline or this introduction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-70","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ucg-germany"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucog.org\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
