Low German Service for Harvest Festival in Kirchdornberg
When gratitude, lived tradition, and shared faith come together, a special experience of faith is created. On the Harvest Festival, the Peters Church Kirchdornberg invites you to a Low German service and opens its doors to the entire community.
Westphalian Language in a Familiar Liturgy
At the center are songs, prayers, and parts of the liturgy in Westphalian Low German. The familiar language of the region connects generations and gives the service a personal, warm atmosphere. People without Low German knowledge are also very welcome.
A Tradition Since 1932
The first Low German service for the Harvest Festival took place in the Peters Church Kirchdornberg as early as 1932. This event continues the long church and local tradition and connects Protestant spirituality with regional cultural history.
Celebrating Together and Reflecting
The service is designed by the city home caretaker and trainee preacher Marc Wübbenhorst. Organizers are the Bielefeld local associations together with the Evangelical-Lutheran parish of Dornberg. In the historic church space, visitors can expect a reflective religious experience with songs, prayer, and a sense of community.
Invitation to All Interested
The invitation is aimed at parish members, Low German enthusiasts, those connected to their homeland, and all people who want to experience the Harvest Festival in a special linguistic and spiritual form. The Peters Church will become a place of exchange, reflection, and shared gratitude.
Look forward to a dignified service, lively Westphalian language, and a community where religious tradition and regional connectedness become palpable. Experience this special Harvest Festival service live in Kirchdornberg.
