I've read the sermon and it is really beautiful, loving and appropriate. I grew up in the Dutch Reformed church in South Africa (I am actually Afrikaans speaking) and I'm used to the long sermons. Can be a bit troublesome when you're sleepy!!

: Here in Germany the sermons in the

: around 15-20 minutes. As the service
: yesterday is almost the same then the

: wondered that it was quiet short.

: The sermons and homilies at the Dutch
: weddings
: and funerals are looooooooooooong indeed.
: Nor for most protestants denominations as
: they are used to hear the Word of God. But
: for Catholics (like me) who are used to the
: Roman Missal with a few short readings and a
: short sermon, it was exhausting. Especially
: when it is an annoying speaker who is not
: able to catch and hold your attention.
