2009Geplaatst door Scott Raab do, maart 06, 2008 14:52:59The dates for next year have already been set, so put them in your agenda and start making plans to be there! It will be a great week and weekend, full of challenging lessons and good fellowship. It's worth the effort!
The dates for ABSS 2009
- Session 1 - Monday evening to Friday afternoon, 16-20 February 2009
- Session 2 - Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, 20-22 February 2009
The lessons for
Session 1 begin on Tuesday morning and go through Friday morning. As always the Gemündener Follies - our 'talent' show - lightens up Thursday evening, with delicious ice cream rounding off the evening.
Session 2 is more family-friendly, certainly since it is much easier to bring the kids along on the weekend. The lessons are on Saturday morning and evening, with plenty of singing and fellowship on Friday evening and a wonderful worship time Sunday morning.

DirectionsGeplaatst door Scott Raab di, maart 04, 2008 08:18:36Gemünden lies 30-35 km beyond the north edge of Frankfurt, somewhere in the hills between Usingen and Bad Camberg.... GOOD LUCK!!!
No, seriously... to reach the Bibelfreizeitheim Gemünden (Bible free-time 'orb')
Goldhecker Weg 6
D-61276 Weilrod-Gemünden
Tel 49 (0)6083-941036
Tel 49 (0)6083-941035 (concierge Gerlinde/Günter)
www.bibelfreizeitheim.de1) from Bad Camburg (on the A3 Fankfurt-Köln)....
Drive into Bad Camburg, over tracks and on to a T-intersection with a stoplight. Turn right. As you leave the town (1.5k) turn left - direction Usingen. Follow this road several km until you come to another T-junction with highway 275 (at a small place called Tenne) where you turn left - direction Usingen.
Drive through Riedelbach. After about 4 more km there are several curves in the road and a town (Neuweilnau) on your left. As you pass, you may see the ruins of a castle tower ahead. Soon you will pass the town and after a sharp bend to the right, always on the same road, you will then turn to the left, up the hill, direction Altweilnau. (You pass a first left turn-off here, back down into Neuweilnau.) Up the hill, after driving by the old tower and a bend to the right, you want to take a left turn (following the 'through traffic' indication) - direction Oberlauken. Drive through Oberlauken to Niederlauken and there - about 70m after the road bends to the right and - you have your first sign for Gemünden, a left turn.
As (having driven about 2 km) you enter the edge of Gemünden, there will be a lumber yard (SORG). Over your left shoulder (a sharp turn-around) is the Goldhecker Weg (landmark - an electrical service hut). Drive up the hill passing a couple of houses (right side) then about 300m and you come to the Bibelfreizeitheim.
2) from the other direction.... Usingen (A5 Frankfurt-Giessen)
Exit the A5 at "Ober-Mörlen" (no.14) and follow 275 through Usingen. After leaving Usingen, follow signs for Niederlauken (right at first and/or second turnoffs, in case of second, direction Hundstadt - Laubach....) and then refer to the above information
(Note – from Frankfurt, you can also take the 456 into Usingen from Oberursel-Nord.)
3) or come to the Usingen train station and we will arrange to pick you up.
(Try to pre-arrange, so we don't make extra trips. About 15 min each way.)
Or, if you're really adventurous, there is also a bus connection from Usingen to Gemünden.
NewsGeplaatst door Scott Raab di, maart 04, 2008 08:14:50This is the new site for ABSS! I am sure that it will change and adapt as I have time to adjust it to our needs, but for now we have a place to place all of the information needed about ABSS.
Most importantly right now, the audio files of the lessons for ABSS I and ABSS II are available under "Audio Files". These are rather large files - they include plenty of our chair-scraping and laughter, but they also include all of the good lesson material that we heard from the speakers. There are also a few "Extra" files of our singing and the devotionals that were presented.
Under "Links" are some links to the photographs taken during the sessions. Take the time to look around the site and see what we need to change and then
email me if you have any suggestions. Thanks for helping make a great time together fantastic!
