In 1951 he was initially appointed to the second pastorate at the St. Ansgarii parish in Bremen-Schwachhausen. He also gave his sermons in Low German. He was not only a respected pastor, but also very valued as a mediator of literature and art. Since 1961 he has published the handbook series The Religions of Humanity. In 1972, on the occasion of the anniversary of the Reformation, he gave a lecture about the reformer Heinrich von Zütphen, who gave the first Reformation sermon in Bremen in the St. Ansgarii Church in 1522.
