Find new ways
On the road again and again for 29 years.
Initiative
We don’t want to hide youth work behind church walls, but rather go where young people are to be found. That’s why we were one of the first movements in Germany to go to schools back in 2002, offering youth work there and building a bridge to the churches. In the midst of pupils’ lives – leading pupils into the midst of life.
Innovation
We have always developed new formats and used the opportunities of the time to our advantage. We celebrated one of the first techno parties in a community and entire classes from a school attended. We went to schools as youth workers when everyone was still saying it was impossible. Digital media and communication were our second skin even before corona.
Empathy
Our core values
Driven by hope
We believe that these three basic values also describe God’s actions in the world (only in part, of course): to seek what is lost and to keep breaking new ground.
What creativity God reveals throughout the history of faith in ever new movements that follow the example of Jesus!

The digital starch sieve
We are developing the Strengths Sieve as a digital tool to help even more young people recognize their talents, boost their self-confidence and develop clear future prospects. Interactive elements and targeted reflections make personal and professional orientation flexible and location-independent. Stay tuned for the launch!
