Seven rooms in one house.

A church is more than the evening it meets. These are the seven rooms of this house — each one a door you can walk through, none of them requiring an audition.

ONE ROOM AT A TIME · THE LIGHT MOVES
01Outreach

One Soul Ministry

Faith that leaves the building.

The part of the church that goes outside: street conversations, hospital and home visits, and simply being the person who shows up. If you would rather do something than sit through something, start here.

For anyone who wants to serve outside the four walls.

One Soul Ministry — Faith that leaves the building.
02Prayer

Prayer Academy

Learning to pray, not just hearing about it.

A practical school of prayer and intercession. We pray for the sick, for families, for papers and jobs and exams — and we teach you how, so you are not standing there wondering what to say.

For beginners and for people who have prayed for forty years.

Prayer Academy — Learning to pray, not just hearing about it.
03Worship

Music Ministry

Five languages, one song.

Singers, keys, guitar, drums and sound. We sing in English and slip into Deutsch, Español, Français or Nederlands when the room carries it. Rehearsals are open — you do not have to be brilliant, you have to be reliable.

For musicians, singers and anyone willing to run the sound desk.

Music Ministry — Five languages, one song.
04Next generation

Youth Ministry

For the ones between school and figuring it out.

Teenagers and twenty-somethings, most of them growing up between two cultures and two languages. Honest conversation, games, food, and faith explained without a lecture.

For 13 to 25 — and for parents who want their kids to have this.

Youth Ministry — For the ones between school and figuring it out.
05Practical help

House of Hope

The letter from the Amt, translated.

Real, unglamorous help: understanding German paperwork, finding your way to an appointment, a warm meal, someone to sit with you in a waiting room. No forms to fill in with us first — just ask.

For newcomers, for anyone in a tight season.

House of Hope — The letter from the Amt, translated.
06Family

Women & Children

A circle for mothers, a corner for the little ones.

Women meeting women — across nations, ages and life stages — while the children have their own space with crayons, stories and people who actually like kids. You can bring your child; nobody will mind the noise.

For women, and for every family with small children.

Women & Children — A circle for mothers, a corner for the little ones.
07Media & arts

Ministry of Creativity

The camera, the design, the dance, the words.

Everything that carries the message further than the room: filming and editing, photos, social media, graphics, movement and writing. If you make things, there is a place for it here.

For creatives who are tired of making things nobody needs.

How you get in

There is no application form.

You come to a gathering, you say which room sounds like you, and someone introduces you to the people already in it. That is the entire process. No probation, no interview, no year of proving yourself first.

Most people try two or three before something fits — and plenty of people come for years without joining any of them at all. Both are completely legitimate ways to belong here.

Before you volunteer for anything

You are welcome before you are useful.

Serving is not the rent you pay for a seat. Nobody here is measured by what they run, carry or organise — and if you are in a season where you have nothing left to give, the right ministry for you this year is none of them.

Come, sit down, be looked after. The doing can wait until you actually want it.

Next step

Tell us which room sounds like you.

Pick a ministry in the form — or say you have no idea yet, which is the most common answer. Someone will write back personally and put you in touch with the right people.
