«Church for Others» Conference»

Many churches feel a longing to be more of a «church for others». At the same time, people around us are searching for hope, guidance and fellowship. The conference helps us to rediscover the mission God has given us – together, in an encouraging, holistic and practical way.

The «Church for Others» movement aims to support a sustainable, long-term process of cultural change, in which churches are inspired and encouraged to be there for others, to work together as Christians in their local areas, to open up to the wider world, and to make Jesus Christ known and visible. Numerous free church associations and Christian organisations from across Switzerland are involved.

The starting point for this initiative is the «Church for Others» conference, which will take place throughout Switzerland from 19 March at 7.00 pm until 20 March at 7.00 pm. Key content will be streamed from the Rapperswil streaming hub to over 50 regional hubs. This will create a colourful mix of content produced live on site and streamed content. The idea is to take part at a nearby hub and, together with followers of Jesus from the same region, explore what «Church for Others» means for me personally, but also for people who do not yet know Jesus. We’ll be taking part in Reinach. As this is just round the corner, there’s no need to stay overnight elsewhere. Will you be joining us? Get in touch now at www.kirchefuerandere.ch an.

The conference will conclude with a national church service on Sunday 21 March at 10.00 am, which everyone will join from their local church.
