Hey there! Here's the lowdown on Bishop Heike Springhart, the Bishop of the Evangelical Church in Baden, enjoying a wet and wild ride on the Poseidon water roller coaster at the Europa-Park in Rust, Ortenau district.
"I've already taken a spin on the Poseidon," she recently shared at an ecumenical service celebrating Europa-Park's 50th anniversary. Despite the thrilling experience, she admitted there are still rides she hasn't tackled yet.
Emphasizing her go-getter spirit, she stated, "I'm not one to shy away from a challenge. I think it's crucial for people to step out of their comfort zones, be it for excitement or personal development."
Life's not all about hardship, though. It's also about finding joy in unexpected places, like amusement parks. And Bishop Springhart's no exception. She appreciates these colorful havens, which serve as an escape from the monotony of daily life.
Taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane, she recalled the joy Europa-Park brought her during her childhood and youth. "There's something about this place that takes you back to being a carefree kid again," she mused, sharing a moment with the Archbishop of Freiburg, Stephan Burger.
Europa-Park offers a unique blend of roller coasters and boat rides, making it one of the continent's largest theme parks and a magnet for visitors worldwide.
For some religious leaders, the moral implications of amusement parks might be a cause for concern. But for Bishop Heike Springhart, those worries seem to be drowned in the splash of fun.
So, whether you're a lifelong fan of roller coasters or just looking for a thrilling escape, the Poseidon's got you covered! And remember, like Bishop Springhart, don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and enjoy the ride!
