How we are?

Liberal and caring!

We are regular people with strengths, weaknesses and doubts who want to orient their life towards Jesus Christ and who search for good ways in everyday life.

We respect the freedom of the individual and our different perceptions regarding questions of faith. We see our diversity and our different life experiences as a chance and an enrichment. We are connected through our love to God and Jesus Christ. We want to listen to each other and to God's words and actions. We want to treat each other, our neighbours and our environment with care.

We are conservative when it comes to preserve what is well-proven, and we look onward when it comes to embrace life and its changes.

We can party fairly and have fun when there is something to celebrate. And to each other, we can stand together prepared, sober-minded and true in heart, brain and hand during times of crisis.

    We are evangelic(al), because we want to pass on the Gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ and the love of God, to all people with words and actions. That means, the Bible and especially the New Testament are an important benchmark for our life. We believe that the Bible is an aid for our life – while being in private, with each other and with God.

    The free choice of the individual is important. In our church only those people become members who decided for themselves to do so. Also as a local congregation, we are self-dependent, that means free of any church hierarchy.

    Evangelical Free Baptist Church

    Only people get baptized who decide for themselves to do so, and who believe with us in the God the Bible gives account of. This baptism, the believer's baptism, has given the Baptists their name. "Baptisma" is Greek for baptist.

    "Alone you wither...". That's also valid for the faith. We don't want to live our faith alone, but celebrate together with God (worship service), learn from Jesus and follow him (as disciples), pass on the good news (evangelization), help other people (social welfare), and share our experiences, problems and joys with other people (community/congregation).
