Einartshausen loses his familiar voice: Pastor Jung is said goodbye!

On New Year's Eve, December 31, 2024, Pastor Martin Jung is officially adopted in Einartshausen. Jung has held pastoral care in the community since 2003 and will be active in the newly created neighborhood community, which will include Einartshausen from 2025. This restructuring of the church administration is a reaction to falling membership numbers and financial constraints. Martin Jung's last day of office is the end of the parish connection to Gonterskirchen, which has existed since 1943 and ends after 81 years. The decision on the changeover was emphasized by the board members, including Marina Heinz, that had no influence on the developments.

The new contact for church issues in the Schotten-Ulrichstein neighborhood area will be Frank Eckhardt. Services will continue to be offered in a 14-day change, the first service in the new year takes place on New Year's Day at 6 p.m. The last service of Martin Jung in Einartshausen is on New Year's Eve at 5 p.m., but without the sacrament, such as fnp.de reported.

news about Pastor Martin Jung

After his farewell to Einartshausen, Pastor Martin Jung will take over the vacant parish of the parish of Ruppertsburg. He will also be responsible for Gonterskirchen and Einartshausen. Artur Niesner, the church leader of Ruppertsburg, expressed hope for a common path with young. This includes the recent developments that have been in force since January 1, 2019 when the Evangelical parish of Gonterskirchen was assigned to the Grünberg deanery. Alexander Janka in the meantime was active as a priority in Ruppertsburg and Laubach and thus represented a transition.

The new community name is symbolized by an Easter candle, which Pastor Stephan Ebelt handed over to the three communities. After the service, the parish of Ruppertsburg was invited to a coffee together in the multi -purpose hall. The service itself was accompanied by the trombone choir Laubach and Katharina Niesner on the organ and reached a solemn setting. Jung, who was born in Gelsenkirchen and finally studied theology after a short intermezzo as a photographer, can look back on a versatile career in church work. He is married and has five children. In addition, he has a preference for music, especially church music, classical and jazz, and often uses the guitar in his services, such as giessener--Allemeine.de reported.
