Københavnerkirken's network

Since Københavnerkirken's beginning in 2001, we have wanted to be inspired and to inspire others in what it means to be a congregation and to be in mission. This has happened in various ways through conversations, meetings, teaching, etc. In spring 2008 we took a further step by forming NMM.

NMM consists of a number of congregations from across the country that meet annually for two regional gatherings and one joint gathering, with input, coaching, encouragement and support. We want to see more and more congregations and communities, both large and small, that in practice have the gospel and Jesus at the center of everything that happens and therefore live in active mission.

Københavnerkirken is also part of the Evangelical Lutheran Network in Denmark. The network was formed in June 2006 on the basis of the church situation and with a great desire to be a voice in Denmark. ELN is a network that creates the framework for evangelical Lutheran Christians in Denmark to meet and cooperate in various ways. The purpose is therefore to gather, inspire and equip people to be church on biblical grounds.  

 

For Københavnerkirken, membership in practice means that we receive oversight from Børge Haahr Andersen, who is a former rector of the Danish Bible Institute and one of ELN's supervisors. Membership also means that we as a church become part of a larger fellowship of Bible-believing congregations in Denmark, and that at various arrangements and events we can meet for shared inspiration.

Acts29 is a global family of church-planting churches, where the vision is to encourage, support, and equip churches to plant new churches. Acts29 is characterized by a strong emphasis on mission and biblically faithful theology. The network was started in the United States, but today consists of congregations from all over the world.

Claus Grønbæk is part of the European leadership, and this is especially where Københavnerkirken draws its inspiration when it comes to church planting. Acts29 holds several larger and smaller conferences annually.
