For Such a Time as This: Resistance, Reformation, and Justice in Germany Celtic Cross at Presbyterian College

June 9-17, 2026

ABOUT

This nine-day pilgrimage explores the legacy of Christian resistance in Nazi Germany and the history of the Protestant reformation, with a special focus on the life, witness, and theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Through visits to historic sites, memorials, and neighborhoods connected to Bonhoeffer and the Confessing Church, pilgrims will engage both the history of resistance and contemporary issues of justice in Berlin and beyond, equipping them to be leaders for justice in their own context. Weaving in sites and stories related to Martin Luther, participants will grapple with the challenges of reforming systems, structures, and organizations. Schedule may be adjusted for efficiency and guide availability.
