We serve with the conviction that the local church is God's primary vehicle for the proclamation of the Good News of Jesus Christ. Because of this conviction, the primary goal of our ministry in Germany will be to plant an urban, indigenous, multiplying church through sustained personal evangelism and discipleship.

Because of the numerous obstacles to faith in Christ, this church will not look like a traditional church. We will be working to develop a network of cell groups or "home churches" that will meet in the home of believers. We hope that these intimate communities will provide a safe and nurturing environment where people who normally wouldn't set foot inside of a church can meet Jesus Christ.

With this vision in hand, we hope through sustained discipleship to develop native leaders within these churches so that we can eventually turn the direction and character of this church over to German leadership. Our goal is not to plant an American church in Germany, but a relavent and multiplying German church that can address the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of the German community. All of this will be done with the hope that this church will impact the city of Cologne for Jesus Christ for generations to come.
