Cologne (Fides Service) – At least 100,000 people visited a travelling BibleBox exhibition which concluded its journey through Germany in Cologne on Sunday 20 July. The exhibition, inaugurated three months ago in Mannheim, was organised by the promoters of the Year of the Bible being held in Germany in collaboration with about 15,000 Christian communities of various German cities, including Berlin, Leipzig, Stuttgart which hosted the BibleBox exhibition in their public squares. www.bibelbox.de is the web site of a blue 11meter cube shaped tent, inn front of which five enormous posters portray five major Bible figures. On entering the tent the visitor is drawn to follow a path, along which Bible passages are illustrated with videos, sculptures and icons. The path is called “To seek is to find”, which is also the motto of the Year of the Bible. Along this path of walking catechesis the visitor is presented with ten Bible figures from the Old and New Testaments, Abraham, Sarah, Jeremiah, Peter and Paul, Mary Magdalene, Mary of Nazareth and Jesus and he or she is encouraged to make their own search for freedom, justice, truth and hope. The bright blue Biblebox could not fail to give rise to curiosity among passers-by and it was a great success, especially with young people. MS (Fides Service 21/7/2003 EM lines 14 Words: 195)
