Taizé service

Sunday, June 15, 6:00 pm

Next Sunday, we cordially invite you to another service in our hall. This will again be a Taizé service, which means that there will again be the well-known songs from Taizé, as well as plenty of time for prayer and silence. This will be followed by dinner in the foyer. A warm invitation to all!

Devotion in the Botanical Garden
Tuesday, June 17, 7:00 am

Our series of morning devotions will take place again this June. We will meet in front of the main entrance of the DBH and walk the short distance over to the Botanical Garden together. There we will hold a short meditative prayer and those who wish can join us afterwards for the Tuesday breakfast. If the weather is bad, we will go to the Andachtsraum in the DBH. 

Tuesday Breakfast
Tuesday, June 17, 7:30 - 9:00 am

The Tuesday breakfast takes place every Tuesday in the foyer. Fruit, muesli, bread and spreads of all kinds are available for a donation of €2. The best company is free. Come and have a look!

Karaoke in the bar
Tuesday, June 17, 7:30 - 10 pm

Our bar is not only good for dancing and clinking glasses, but also for singing! That's why this semester, for the first time, we're hosting a regular karaoke series on Tuesdays! So please come along, whether to sing, listen or toast! We look forward to seeing you!

Improvisational theater workshop
Wednesday, June 18, 8:00 pm

Would you like to slip into a different role? Take on a position that you would never take on otherwise? Then our workshop is the right place for you! We will slowly and beginner-friendly approach new, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes angry, sometimes serious roles and want to play a small sketch together with you at the end of the evening. The workshop will take place in a safe space and we will make sure that nobody feels uncomfortable. So if you don't want to take part (anymore) at any point, that's perfectly okay! 
We are looking forward to seeing you there and to have an exciting and entertaining evening!

Queer Service in the Schlosskirche
Sunday, June 22, 18:00 pm

Queer people have always been part of the church - visibly or invisibly. The fact that the church can also be a safe space for queer people can be seen again on Sunday in the Schlosskirche, when a queer service will be celebrated there. If you are queer yourself, or if you simply want to know what a queer church service can look like, please drop by the Schlosskirche on Sunday. The service is intended to be a safe space so that everyone can feel comfortable. Come along, we look forward to representing the ESG there!

Tango Salón Argentino

Thursday, June 26, 7:00 - 9:30 pm

Mit dem Tango Salón Argentino starten wir ein neues Programm an der ESG in Bonn. Es richtet sich an Studierende, unabhängig von ihrem Niveau. Hier kann man traditionellen Tango lernen, üben, sich austauschen und gemeinsam Zeit verbringen.
Tango ist viel mehr als nur ein Tanz. Für uns ist der Tango eine Form der Kommunikation, eine Sprache, eine Kunstform.
Wir freuen uns auf Euch! - Marina und Hadi
