The church since its inception has been of the evangelical tradition, but being the only Anglican Church in the area it seeks to provide a spiritual home for a wide variety of other traditions and denominations. The congregation is truly international and interdenominational with people from all over the English speaking world. A number of English speaking native Germans also attend. Many of the congregation are long term residents in Germany; others are expatriates who stay for either a shorter or longer period of time. There are often visitors who come for the trade fairs and, finding us close by, decide to visit- several now come every year.

The aim is to minister to all the English speaking people in the Düsseldorf area, including Duisburg, Essen, Dortmund, Wuppertal, Mönchengladbach and Krefeld. The congregation is widely scattered, some members taking an hour or more to come to church by car or public transport.

Great efforts are made to make newcomers feel welcome and quickly integrated into the life of the church. As well as being invited to come to the church hall after the service for refreshment and to meet other members of the congregation, there is a monthly ?bring and share? lunch after the service. There is an informal network of support in which many of the congregation help and support each other. The other area of ministry in home groups of which there are currently four meeting in people's homes.
