A singing summer afternoon full of faith, community, and church music
The Open Singing in Heepen invites you to a warm, spiritual break in the Protestant Peter and Paul Church. On Friday, July 17, 2026, the focus is on the communal singing of popular church songs in the open church – supported by community music, devotion, and a palpable sense of community.
Familiar church songs that open hearts
For this edition, the team around Erich Haubeck and Heiko Scholz has compiled a best of the most requested songs from the past months. The selection combines familiar melodies with the liveliness of an open singing format. This creates a faith experience that is easily accessible yet profoundly moving.
Music as a spiritual space
The musical emphasis is on songs that evoke memories while also opening new avenues to spirituality. In the Protestant Church, congregational singing has always been experienced as an expression of faith, comfort, and hope. This atmosphere shapes the Open Singing: calm, inviting, and full of resonance.
Summery openness in a historic church
The Peter and Paul Church in Heepen is among the oldest places of worship in Bielefeld and serves as the center of community life in the district. During the summer months, it is open from Sunday to Friday from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Thus, singing is combined with a visit to a historically significant location that connects tradition and the present.
