Tour Mayor Attends Ecumenical Gathering Hosted by Gaben on 50 Hearts Tour

In Altenessen, every Saturday, the Ecumenical Gift Fence stands as a beacon of humanity, unity, and hope. This community initiative provides essential support to up to 200 people, offering them food, clothing, and books.

Mayor Thomas Kufen recently visited the Ecumenical Gift Fence as part of his "50 Hearts" tour, highlighting the importance of such initiatives in addressing local needs. During his visit, he expressed admiration for the work done at the Gift Fence and thanked the volunteers for their invaluable contribution to the community.

The Gift Fence is a place where people from various backgrounds come together to help their neighbours. The volunteers, coordinated by the organization "Evangelische Kirchengemeinde Altenessen," work tirelessly to ensure the smooth operation of the Fence each week.

People are encouraged to donate clothing items or everyday products on Saturdays, helping to stock the Fence and support those in need. The Fence does not discriminate based on origin or religion, welcoming everyone who seeks assistance.

Mayor Kufen's visit emphasized the impact of such initiatives and underscored the importance of community support and solidarity. The work done at the Ecumenical Gift Fence is impressive and deserves respect and support from all members of the community.

The Ecumenical Gift Fence continues to serve as a shining example of the power of community action and the spirit of giving. It stands as a testament to the resilience and compassion of the people of Altenessen.
