Jann Schreier: A young key player in the community life of Altengroden

In the Apostle John Community in the Märkischesviertel there is an active personality who has a decisive influence on community life. Jann Schreier, 25 years old, lives next to the Apostle John's Church in Altengroden and is a true all-rounder when it comes to the church community. From the role of lecturer to sexton to youth group leader, he takes on numerous tasks that are indispensable for coexistence in the community. NWZonline reports that he is also active in the parish church council in Fedderwardergroden and in the district synod of the church district.

Schreier's commitment knows no limits. He is not only a member of the building and worship committee, but also of the district youth committee. Every Friday he looks after the youth group and steps in when the district youth deacon Matthias Rensch is unable to attend. His selfless manner in taking on tasks such as closing windows and turning off lights in the church and community center is admirable.

A career with heart

His career is equally remarkable. Originally he had little connection to the church, but attended a Protestant kindergarten and the children's church. At the age of 17, he was called by pastors to lead a youth group, which was the beginning of an important phase in his life. After completing his apprenticeship as a system mechanic for plumbing, heating and air conditioning technology, he has established himself in his profession and also ensures that everything runs smoothly in his working life. Jann worked as a hut team member in Wildflecken, where he acted as a contact person for the participants, which underlines his organizational talent.

The Apostle John Community in which he works can look back on over 50 years of existence. How apojo.de reports, the community offers much more than just the classic church rituals such as baptisms, confirmations and weddings. Spiritual life flourishes 365 days a year and value is placed on community coexistence between all generations. Volunteering is highly valued and supported, which further promotes the family environment within the community.

Cultural diversity and commitment

The architectural style of the Apostle John's Church and the community center can be seen from afar. The use of exposed concrete gives the building the striking brutalist look, and both buildings are already listed buildings. Particularly noteworthy is the Ilisch organ, which has been in operation since October 1974 and recently celebrated its 50th birthday. Such cultural events and invitations to special events are regularly published on the community's homepage in order to let members take part in these highlights.

Jann Schreier not only puts his heart and soul into the community, but is also interested in dance and has joined a show dance group in which he is active three times a week. This shows once again that his commitment goes far beyond church concerns.

With his diverse commitment and clear commitment to the community, Jann Schreier is a young role model for many and shows that you can achieve a lot of positive things even in today's times.
