Our story
Many nations, one family.
We are a Christian church in Zurich founded on 7 July 2019 by pastors Gerardo and Susana Frühwirth. We come from many countries, united by the same faith and the desire to be a family for those far from home.
We celebrate the service in Spanish with German translation and audio in Portuguese and English, because we want no one left out.
