The floor in the <strong>Entrance area<\/strong> has been laid (the old metal floor can still be seen in the picture). You no longer have the immediate feeling of entering a building site. Although it still is one, of course.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Walls<\/strong> in the main room have largely been painted - in a warm cream colour that conveys a sense of security and calm. Really beautiful!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/2015-07-11-14.50.33.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3676\" src=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/2015-07-11-14.50.33-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"2015-07-11 14.50.33\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAnd the <strong>Shower<\/strong> is running. After 40 months of construction without a shower, this is a milestone - even if we'd rather jump into the Spree to cool off in the current temperatures than take a shower. We are currently working on the heating. When it's almost 40 degrees outside, that's funny, of course, but the installations on a ship are so complex that it takes weeks to install and lay all the pipes, cables and distributors. That's why we're already getting started.<\/p>\n<p>And last but not least, the ship is growing more and more into its <strong>Destination<\/strong> and planned function. The first workshop on board took place in July - on the subject of healing. With 10 participants from very different backgrounds, some of whom simply wanted to learn, some of whom needed healing themselves. Now and again <strong>coach<\/strong> I also have people on board. It's a really good place for that.<\/p>\n<p>And for the first time <strong>Publishing work<\/strong> moved on board. I'm still writing some lessons for the new <a href=\"http:\/\/dte-training.de\/wum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Online course WUM - Miracles among people. Experience God's power naturally<\/a>. After a swim in the Spree, I used the early hours of the morning to continue working on it. The boat is a wonderful place in the morning, especially for work where I need peace and quiet to think.<\/p>\n<p>The challenges are once again the <strong>Finances.<\/strong> Normally, I allow surpluses from the publishing house to flow into the ship. We currently have a shortfall. Huge. The money I earn from sales is not enough to pay all the bills. That's because of investments. We have printed a lot of new titles - especially for the Year of Gratitude. It always takes a few months - if things go well - or years - if things don't go so well - before enough books are sold to cover the costs and there is something left over.<\/p>\n<p>If books are out of print and have to be reprinted, the process takes much longer. Calculated over 5 to 10 years, it's worth it, but first of all it tears a huge hole in the budget. In the last 6 months, we have published 15 new titles and reprinted three books and calendars. The result is that the outstanding invoices are currently several times higher than what I normally earn in a month. There's nothing left for the ship at the moment.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What you can do to help me get the ship ready:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Du-brauchst-Hilfe.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3682 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Du-brauchst-Hilfe-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"You need help\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>- Pray:<\/strong> Ask God for creative solutions (I can't think of any normal ones at the moment).<\/p>\n<p><strong>- Shopping for a good cause:<\/strong> Buy a whole pile of books, calendars etc. from us in stock. It's good to have all the Christmas presents for family, colleagues, employees, church etc. together. That would take a lot of pressure off. 10 - 20 people shopping for 50 or 100 euros would already help to pay the next bill. You can find everything at www.down-to-earth.de<\/p>\n<p>- <strong>Online course: <\/strong>Register yourself - and perhaps a friend - for an online course: <a href=\"http:\/\/dte-training.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">DAN, IDA, LEA, SAM, WUM...<\/a> whatever strengthens you in life. Or suggest that you take part in one as a whole group. The next courses don't start until October, but it would help me a lot to receive the course fee soon.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/2015-08-08-16.27.30.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-3679\" src=\"https:\/\/kerstinhack.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/2015-08-08-16.27.30-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"2015-08-08 16.27.30\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>- Advertising:<\/strong> Advertise Down to Earth in your neighbourhood.
