Kirchgemeinde Hilterfingen

OUR CHURCH CONGREGATION

Who are we?
We are a national church and emphasize various theological aspects. Our aim is to combine life and message. Our parish team, youth workers/catechists, social welfare workers, honorary staff, and many volunteers offer you a wide range of opportunities to meet like-minded people and those with different views of all ages and to search with them for answers to the meaning and fullness of life, or simply to enjoy fellowship.

• actively seeking out people and
• providing targeted support for project ideas that are submitted.
