This Adventgemeinde is part of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. This church emerged from a 19th-century revival movement. It boasts a global membership of over 22 million. In Germany alone there are about 34000 members. These members are organized into 542 congregations. Their faith is solely based on the Bible.
The Adventgemeinde Berlin-Charlottenburg is special. It offers a spiritual home. Members engage in Bible studies. They share in fellowship. They actively participate in their neighborhood. They support global initiatives.
Every Saturday a main service is held from 10 am to 12:30 pm. A Romanian service precedes it at 9:30 am. An English service follows at 1 pm. This reflects the diverse community the Adventgemeinde serves. Midweek activities include Wednesday Bible studies at 7 pm and a Saturday morning prayer group at 9:30 am. A Thursday lunch gathering adds to the sense of community.
Pastor Ruben Silva Freixo leads the congregation. He’s a central figure. He’s readily available. He welcomes new members. He fosters a supportive environment. He embodies the spirit of the Adventgemeinde. Its mission is simple yet powerful. To nurture faith. To foster community. To serve the world.
