Here you will find a spiritual concept, a semester program on "Ernst Tanner Helimission" and other interesting info (incl. videos).

Ernst Tanner is a Swiss missionary and helicopter pioneer who has had many exciting experiences with God, people and helicopters throughout his years. His vivid stories can be found in the books Death Shadows and More Than an Adventure (both on the Homepage of Helimission). There are also video excerpts for various stories to go with the afternoon theme.

The stories are perfect for a semester focused on young adult technology (See semester program)

Preparation of Pulled Pork

• Working time approx. 45 minutes
• Resting time approx. 45 minutes
• Cooking/baking time approx. 3 hours
• Total time approx. 4 hours 30 minutes

Remove excess fat from the pork neck and rub with the mustard on all sides. Mix the paprika powder, salt, pepper, cumin powder, thyme and rosemary to make a spice mixture (rub) and rub the neck of pork generously with it. Leave the meat to marinate in the fridge for 12 - 24 hours.

The next day, cut the apple into pieces and the onions into half rings.

Heat the Briquettes for the Dutch Oven. I use 6 at the bottom and 14 at the top for my 11 litre pot. Place 6 Briquettes under the pot and sauté the onions in oil. Then add the apple and sauté. Add the Worcester sauce and tomato paste and fry briefly. 

Deglaze with the stock and put the pork neck on top. Put the lid on and load it with the remaining coals. If you have one, you can also fit the pork neck with a thermometer. After approx. 1.5 hours, you can add a few more Briquettes (unless you have specially long-lasting Briquettes).

After approx. 2.5 - 3 hours, the roast is done, the core temperature should be approx. 90-95 °C. Take it out and let it rest for 30 - 45 minutes wrapped in aluminium foil. Afterwards, the roast can be pulled and served according to taste. 

Either enjoy in a roll with green and coleslaw and 1 - 2 tbsp. of the onion-apple sauce or put it back in the pot and mix it with the onion-apple sauce - a real treat. Serve with a good piece of baguette.

We make a pentagon lamp with a tea light

and have a devotion afterwards

This concept was carried out as part of the Besj League Zone Zurich. It is suitable for children and young people aged 9-16 years. It is intended to serve as a support for devotional preparation.

The participants are driven by car to a place where they do not know so well. From this place the participants have to find their way back to the starting point

For our sola, instead of a traditional theater, we recorded a radio play with all the leaders. Here is our result for further use or development

The story of Noah's Ark is told in this theatre from the point of view of the animals. They have to decide if they want to believe Noah and the promises of God and go on the ark, or they stay on earth like the other spotters. For them the decision has far-reaching consequences, once they are on the ark there is no going back. At the same time, each animal has its own character traits and a different opinion about the ark.

The drama has a lot to do with trust and faith in God's promises. It is meant to bridge to our own faith lives. Do we trust God 100%? Are we already on the ark or are we about to be?

The play is written in beautiful Bärndütsch and is peppered with numerous little gags. It was written for a Pfila, so it is also expandable.... ;)

Background.

To be a main leader in the Jungschar involves several important points:

It works in a similar way to normal floorball. Instead of field hockey sticks, the players have a fly swatter and the game is played with a ping-pong ball. The playing field, group size and goal size can be freely adapted to suit requirements.

Whether in the Sola, on a normal Jungschar afternoon or on a team outing, a cosy fire should almost never be missing. But which leader does not know it, that he quickly reaches for kindling cubes due to lack of knowledge or lack of time and inwardly knows: "I have sinned against the Jungschar law!" :)

Well this booklet can't give you extra time making a fire, but it can give you tips and tricks on how to make a fire survival style.

These topics are covered:
- What are the regulations/laws of fire making?
- Different natural tinder (tinder sponge/birch bark etc.)
- Different spark generators (ignition steel, fire drill etc.)
- Fire forms (pyramid, layered fire)
- Fire drilling
- Different dishes for over the fire

The booklet is very good for personal use, for leaders but also for children.
Have fun reading through it and then maybe making a fire.

Homesickness happens to children every now and then, especially during extended camps in tents or houses. Sometimes it's hardly an issue, sometimes homesickness spreads like an epidemic.

In this article, you'll learn how homesickness develops, how to reduce the likelihood of it happening in the first place, and what to do when a child is homesick.
