Our Vision
In 2014, God gave us the vision of many lines (like flight routes) radiating out from Frankfurt into Germany and beyond.
We believe that God has called us to be a hub for Germany; to enable many churches to be equipped, encouraged and strengthened, and for new churches to be planted across the nation.
God gave a second vision of a map of Germany that looked like a colour-by-numbers picture. Each Bundesland was being individually coloured in, one by one.
Our vision is to see a self-multiplying church in each of the 16 Bundesländer of Germany. We recognise that this is a large and multi-generational vision, and will require future generations of church planters to run with the vision
God has given us a specific vision for our local church in Frankfurt: to be a Hafen (Harbour) for the city, hence the name - Hafenkirche.
It is not because we are located near the river but because - like a harbour - we want to be a place that offers security and refuge, a church family who strengthen and equip each other, and a place from which we can send out disciples (near or far) and plant churches.
