2. Liesenfelder Jakobusweg Standort frühere Kapelle
Rhein-Mosel-Str. 45, 56281 Emmelshausen
The first chapel of Liesenfeld is said to have stood at this place, or rather near here. About Liesenfeld in the time of the Middle Ages Peter Schug writes in his "History of the Trier Parishes": "This place, now ceded to Emmelshausen, we meet only in 1399, though it must be much older. The chapel of St. James, present in 1609, was temporarily assigned to the few Reformed in the turmoil of the 17th century, namely in 1706 ... . Since the chapel was already old and frail in 1784, and it collapsed in 1833, it was rebuilt by the civil parish in 1835." The second chapel stood near the present one. For many centuries there have been people living in Liesenfeld for whom it is very important to have a chapel in the village and also to celebrate church services there. They are committed to their faith. Let us read another passage in the Gospel of Matthew: "Then Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to cast out unclean spirits and to heal all diseases and sicknesses. The names of the twelve apostles are: in the first place, Simon, called Peter, and Andrew his brother; then James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon Cananaeus; and Judas Iscariot, who delivered him up." Mt 10:1-4 Impulse James was chosen to be an apostle, he was one of Jesus' twelve close friends and experienced much with him. Questions How close is my relationship with Jesus? How do I relate to my friends? What does friendship mean to me? The next impulse is at the bench under the trees. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
