		Dietrich Bonhoeffer was born in Breslau on February 4, 1906, the sixth child of Karl and Paula Bonhoeffer.
		Paula Bonhoeffer chose to educate her children in their early years at home, observing that "Germans have their backbones broken twice in life: first in the schools, secondly in the military." Her emphasis on a strong moral and intellectual character was shared throughout the Bonhoeffer family.

	Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945) - By Miles Hodges
		Dietrich Bonhoeffer was born on February 6, 1906, as the sixth child (a twin sister, Sabine, was born minutes later to become the seventh child) of a well-placed Berlin family.
		Young Bonhoeffer was early recognized as possessing an exceptional intellect and at age 17 he began his study of theology at the Universities of Tübingen and Berlin (1923-1927).
		But Bonhoeffer's Christian spirit was clearly heading him in the opposite direction, toward a position of Christian internationalism or "ecumenism." In 1931 he attended an ecumenical conference in Cambridge, England, and was appointed a European youth secretary of the World Alliance for Promoting International Friendship through the Churches.

		Bonhoeffer suggests that “the claim of the congregation to build the world on Christian principles ends only with the total capitulation of the Church to the world, as can be seen clearly enough by a glance at the New York church registers.
