Who we are

The “Christliche Zentrum Fehmarn (CZF)” is a church project of the Church of God Germany K.d.ö.R. with the headquarters in Urbach. They are the German branch of the international Church of God in Cleveland/TN-USA.

We belong the worldwide Pentecostal movement.

The Church of God currently exists in more than 150 countries. It therefore is one of the biggest worldwide Pentecostal churches. Our doctrine is based on the Bible alone and it has the evangelical creed as foundation.

According to our belief, born again Christians from all bible-grounded churches belong to the true church of Christ. In the CZF we celebrate God together, experience Him and get to know Him. We have caring relationships and grow together. We invest ourselves with our gifts and talents.

OUR SELF-CONCEPTION

Free evangelical Church

As a free evangelical church we are Protestants, who stand in the heritage of the Reformation. We are however independent from the two state churches and are financed through voluntary donations and offerings alone.

Strong relationships

We consider the strengthening and support of relationships an important contribution to the solidarity in the church and our society. We believe and experience that the love of God has positive impact on all our human relationships.

Growing

We are not an exclusive club, but we are always open for people who are interested in God. We gladly integrate people from all kinds of situations and backgrounds.

Evangelical

The Bible has a very high priority for us, because we believe, that God reveals Himself through the Old and the New Testament. Christian values, that have their origin in the Bible, are the guidelines for a balanced and healthy life.

Christ-centered

It is our greatest wish to get to know God personally, to serve Him and to love Him. We believe, that one can get to know God simply through prayer. We experience, that Jesus Christ is risen from the dead, that He lives, speaks into the lives of people and that He works by concretely answering prayers.

Pentecostal

“Pentecostal” means, we believe, that still today God answers prayer, heals the sick and works positively in our lives in a supernatural way through Holy Spirit. The so called “Pentecostal Movement” is the fastest growing group within Christianity and it currently counts more than 500 million Christians.
