Folkekirken for Internationals is a vibrant and welcoming community within the Danish National Church, dedicated to embracing expats and fostering a sense of belonging in Copenhagen – basically your home away from home.

Our mission is to offer a radical welcome to everyone international in the city. We aim to create a modern church experience that transcends cultural boundaries and invites individuals from all walks of life to join us in fellowship. At Folkekirken for Internationals, we believe in an all-inclusive God who celebrates diversity and offers love, acceptance and grace to everyone, without exclusion, welcoming every type of family and couple.

In our community, there are no corners where anyone is pushed aside. Instead, we celebrate each person’s unique story and journey of faith.

Our services and activities are designed to be relevant and engaging, embracing contemporary themes while remaining rooted in timeless spiritual truths. Our Sunday Jazz Services and our Gospel Services provide a space to connect with God, and our community activities help make a bridge into the Danish society and a home away from home.

We recognize the challenges that come with living in a new country and aim to support one another through shared experiences, encouragement and laughter, creating bonds that often feel like family.

Join us at Folkekirken for Internationals to explore faith, deepen connections and celebrate the beauty of our diverse community.

Together, we seek to embody the spirit of inclusivity, openness and love, inviting you to experience the warmth and grace of our fellowship.

We look forward to welcoming you and walking alongside you in your faith journey, as we grow together in love and understanding, affirming that you are an essential part of our church family.
