A Word from the Wardens
Since our Annual Church Meeting last year, most of you will know that Kara was likely to leave us some time this year, when her 5-year contract expires. We would have liked her to stay on a bit longer.
Now, however, we can be more specific. Her contract will expire on 31 May 2023.
When she actually chooses to wind up her ministry at St. Catherine’s and when exactly she moves away from Stuttgart is for her to decide.
In the name of the chaplaincy, and personally, we would like to thank her for her ministry here and wish her Godspeed for the future.
We commend Kara and our Council to your prayers in the weeks and months of change ahead.
Howard & Alison – Wardens of St. Catherine’s Anglican Chaplaincy, Stuttgart

Women from several denominations in the local area are gathering to prepare for worship service. All are welcome to assist. Our next meeting is on 31st January at 19:00 in the church. Please feel free to join us. Please contact wgt@stcatherines-stuttgart.de for more details.
I request that you continue to keep all women in your prayers, especially those subjected to discrimination, trafficking, etc.
