Walk in and see for yourself

ul. Wyspiańskiego 1367-100 Nowa SólSunday 11:00

This page exists so that you do not have to guess anything. We describe Sunday step by step, from parking the car to walking back out.

The service is in Polish. We do not have live translation. If you would like someone to sit with you and translate quietly, write to [email protected] a few days ahead and we will try to arrange it.

    You will know it from the street

    The building is at Wyspianskiego 13. You will recognise it by the cross on the yellow wall, visible from the pavement. Cars are left along the street.

    There are two benches in front of the door, in case you need a moment. The service times are on the glass plate next to the door, the number is on the wall.

    The entrance: a white door, a few steps with handrails and two benches on either side, between trees.

    What happens inside, in order

      Someone talks about a passage from the Bible and what it means in ordinary life. It is the longest part.

Seven questionsWyspa Odnowa · Nowa Sól

The things people are afraid to ask

  1. Will anyone make me speak in front of everyone?

    No. Whoever is leading does not call visitors out or ask for introductions. The back rows are usually free.

  2. Do I have to give money?

    No. The offering is voluntary. Nobody watches who gives what.

  3. I do not believe. Can I come?

    Yes. Quite a few people here started exactly there. What you believe is your own business, and we treat it that way.

  4. I have been through hard things. Is this place for me?

    Yes. Especially for you. Most of us came here carrying something. You do not have to talk about it until you want to.

  5. Can I leave halfway through?

    At any moment and without explaining. The doors are at the back.

  6. What should I wear?

    Whatever you wear on a normal day. Jeans and a hoodie are completely fine.

  7. I will come alone. Will it be awkward?

    Most people come alone the first time. The room is not big, but not small enough for anyone to stare.

From a distanceYouTube · @wyspaodnowa

If you would rather watch from a distance first

We stream our services live and the recordings stay on our channel. You can watch a whole service at home, on headphones, at any hour. You can also watch and not come. That is fine too.
