 So you’ve found our website. Maybe it was a fluke, maybe it was just lucky, maybe you don’t know how you got here, but I’d like to think of it as a blessing. A blessing for us because every guest is a blessing. We value that, we value you. More importantly, God values you.
And then we believe that we don’t just live for ourselves, so we hope that we can be a blessing to you.
Perhaps you will find here something useful, interesting, or inspiring. Hopefully you will see that while this site has many purposes we’d mostly like this to be an invitation, an invitation to believe but also to explore the Christian faith. Maybe, if you live close, you’ll find a reason to drop in in person. We would be very glad if you did.

| time redeemed by eternity |
Almighty God, by the power of your Holy Spirit open our eyes, ears, hearts, and very lives to your presence so that today we may worship and serve you in faithfulness, be blessing and healing reminders of your love to all whose lives we touch. We offer our prayers in the name of Christ. Amen.
When we pray we trust God with our whole being. As we come before God, we trust that God has us and the whole world in his hands; without this there would be no point to our prayer. We believe that God is the goal of our existence and the One through whom our whole life is redeemed. When we pray we do more than merely speak with God, we consciously step into God's presence: We don't just want something from God but we want to be with God. Sometimes our prayer can be silent, like a couple that has been happily married for many years can sit together silently and simply be grateful for each others' presence. Other times we share our day with God, or what's ahead, or what we're grateful for and what we're concerned about. Or we may ponder a Bible passage, reading and re-reading it, until we begin to pray the passage and hear God speak to us through it.
Because the pray-er knows God to be the answer to all our needs, he or she brings before God not only him or herself, but others as well: family, friends, church, colleagues, neighbours, the world. It is not only what God can and must do, but it is for eternity to redeem time, for God's presence to transform our lives and our world.
Yours,
Pastor Christoph
