Teaching edit

Wehmeier began teaching Old Testament at the United Theological College, Bangalore from 1973 during the Principalship of J. R. Chandran. Wehmeier's students who specialized in Old Testament during that period include,

When Wehmeier joined the seminary in 1973, John Sadananda, the present Master of the Senate of Serampore College (University) was still a graduate student who benefited from the Old Testament scholarship of Wehmeier and his other two colleagues, G. M. Butterworth and E. C. John and the three of them led the Old Testament studies in Bangalore while John D. W. Watts[8] and G. Babu Rao[9] led the Old Testament studies in Serampore College, Serampore for nearly half a decade.

After Wehmeier returned to Germany in 1978 to take up responsibilities with his home Church, the Evangelical Church of Hesse Electorate-Waldeck, he continued to be involved in matters relating to ministerial support for students pursuing seminary studies in India. It was Wehmeier who made possible[10] the overseas research studies of Daniel Sadananda, a New Testament Scholar and current President of the United Theological College, Bangalore Society.

Reminisce edit

Bishop de:Martin Hein, EKD,[1]

...a purposeful working member of the Church who had never wanted to focus on his person, but had always given priority to the service of the Gospel and the Church. He deserves special recognition for the theological training and the service in the Church as Pastor of the pastors. Wehmeier showed himself as an ecumenical Christian with a comprehensive horizon through his work in India and the United States.
