As human beings, we are always on a journey, yet it makes a great difference where we are heading and with whom we travel. Many religions, including the Christian tradition, know the blessing: encouraging words that accompany you on your life’s journey. They do not necessarily make life easier, but they offer inspiration, direction, and courage. They speak of the mystery we call God, the Eternal One, who goes with you, does not leave you alone, and reminds you that your life matters. With a blessing, you can continue your life’s journey in peace, and share that peace with others.
To receive a blessing, you do not need to be religious or a member of the church; everyone is welcome at the Kloosterkerk. It costs nothing—only a few moments for a short personal conversation about your name, what you would like the blessing for, and whether you prefer to stand, sit, or kneel.
The Kloosterkerk warmly invites you to come and receive a blessing.
