Brüssow on the way to the USA: a departure full of hope!
Brüssow, Deutschland - The descendants of the Uckermark emigrants make their way to the USA! A few weeks ago, American great-grandchildren visited the city of Brüssow, now Brüssow opened to the United States. Pastor Matthias Gienke is the driving organizer of this trip, which is supposed to celebrate a long -term partnership with the "Historical Society of North German Settlements in Western New York". Gienke emphasizes that the knowledge of the challenges that former emigrants faced is still important today. He encourages the participants to start new life with optimism.
The Brüssow Museum, which is located in the historic church of 1859, urgently needs financial support for costly renovation, which should cost 500,000 euros. During the trip of the Uckermarkers, the museum advisory board urges the fundraiser. A recent benefit concert by the Bundeswehr already earned 3,000 euros. Visitors can follow the trip of the Brüssow on the website of the parish, where Pastor Gienke regularly shares photos: parish-bruessow.de .
