CUXHAVEN. The Seamen’s Mission Cuxhaven and the St.-Petri-Parish held a “Sunday for Sailors” in the St. Petri Church on 2 March. The event honouring mariners took place for the 32nd time. “Sailors often work under the most adverse conditions – despite heavy storms, long separations from their families, sometimes challenging working conditions on the high seas, armed conflicts and the danger of piracy,” emphasised Martin Struwe, deacon at the Seamen’s Mission Cuxhaven. In 2024, nearly 2,900 ships docked at Cuxhaven.
