We are... a charming, active, and aspiring church community with a lot of heart, looking forward to fresh energy. Our community with around 1000 members is located in the heart of Thurgau.

• values and nurtures collaboration with employees and volunteers.

You will find with us…

• a lively and future-oriented church community that wants to explore new paths with you and offers you space for your ideas and impulses.
• a benevolent and supportive church council.
• a warm, family atmosphere with committed teams.
• a parsonage next to the church with a large garden, living area, and separate office rooms.
