About Us

We are an independent Christian church serving the people of the Ägeri Valley. Our heart is for Jesus, for His people, and for His Kingdom to be made visible in our everyday lives. We welcome people from all nations and backgrounds, and because our community is international, many of us are able to communicate in more than one language. Most of our gatherings are bilingual in German and English, which makes it easier for people to connect, belong, and grow together as one family in Christ.

If you have moved to the Ägeri area and are looking for a place to start, a place to be known, or a place to grow in faith and friendship, we would love to meet you. We believe church is more than attending a service; it is about being joined to a spiritual family, walking together in truth, sharing life, and learning to follow Jesus side by side. As Jesus said, “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers.” Matthew 23:8

At the centre of our life together is Jesus Himself. He is the one who saves, restores, leads, and transforms. We do not want to build around personalities, titles, or performance, but around Christ, who is the Head of the church. We see ourselves as brothers and sisters gathered around Him, growing in love for God, in devotion to His Word, and in obedience to His Spirit.

Our desire is to build a church that feels like home and lives like family. That means sharing meals, praying for one another, carrying burdens together, celebrating joys together, and making space for every person to be seen, valued, and encouraged. We want to enjoy fellowship, support one another in practical ways, and live in such a way that the goodness of God becomes visible to the world around us.

We believe that the Christian life is not meant to be dry, distant, or merely religious. It is a real, daily relationship with God, full of grace, truth, joy, power, and transformation. As we walk with Him personally, we experience His faithfulness in ordinary life and His power in extraordinary ways. This relationship with God has changed our lives, and because of that, we want to invest ourselves fully in what He is doing in us, among us, and through us.

We also believe that every believer has a part to play. Four12 takes its name from Ephesians 4:12, with a strong emphasis on equipping the saints for the work of ministry and building up the body of Christ. In that spirit, we want to see every member strengthened, released, and encouraged to serve Jesus with the gifts and grace God has given them. Church is not the work of a few people on a platform; it is the shared life and calling of the whole body.

Our longing is to see the love of God touch real people in real ways. We want to see lives restored, hearts healed, faith awakened, and hope released into our region. We want to be a church that carries the presence of God, proclaims the gospel clearly, loves generously, and serves faithfully. The good we do is never just activity for activity’s sake; it flows from our love for Jesus and our confidence that nothing done in Him is wasted. As Scripture says, “because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do.”

That is why our motto is: All for Jesus. Everything we are and everything we do belongs to Him. We want to stand firm in faith, remain faithful in service, and keep giving ourselves wholeheartedly to the work He has placed before us. In the words of “Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” 1 Corinthians 15:58

We also see ourselves as part of something bigger than just our local church. We belong to a worldwide partnership of churches called Four12, a family of churches committed to authentic New Testament Christianity, to strengthening leaders, equipping believers, and advancing the church that Jesus is building. Being part of Four12 helps us stay rooted in biblical truth, relationally connected, and outward-looking in mission.

Our prayer is that this church would be a place where people encounter Jesus, find spiritual family, grow in discipleship, and are equipped to live fully for the glory of God. Whether you are exploring faith, looking for a church home, or simply searching for genuine Christian community in the Ägeri Valley, you are welcome here.
