About us - Hoffnungskirche Bünde
The Hoffnungskirche Bünde is a free church in the Federation of Evangelical Free Church Congregations (KdÖR), with the desire to make faith in Jesus Christ life-like, hopeful & empowering.
That is our vision!
We believe in the good news of Jesus Christ, the Gospel and his saving power, which continues to change us as people today and draws our attention to our fellow human beings. We believe that God speaks to us humans through his word even in the 21st century and that we can look to the future with hope in him. Inspired by him, we design and experience the Bünde Church of Hope.
