What's on
Vild med Vejle
We want to make a lasting difference in our city. Not through campaigns, but through presence: shared meals, practical help and open doors for people in Vejle — whether or not they attend church.
What we do in the city
Family network Vejle
Thursday in even-numbered weeks, 4.00–7.00 pm
A community for families under pressure — for example due to unemployment, illness, bereavement, addiction or divorce. Shared meals, activities for children and adults, and personal, social and financial guidance as needed. Run by volunteers.
Community café & Foodbank
Every Monday, 10.00–11.30 am
Coffee, community and food to take home. You can receive food if you receive public benefits, have been approved and are registered — so please call Helle first.
Christmas aid
Annually in the run-up to Christmas
Gift cards for Christmas food and gifts for children in financially struggling families and for people living alone in Vejle Municipality — distributed in a welcoming café atmosphere. Run in partnership with organisations including KIT, REMA 1000 and Rosborg Gymnasium. Most recently, 120 families received help.
Halløj i Parken
Every May — most recently 29–31 May 2026
A free festival for the whole family, organised in close partnership with pastors and volunteers from other churches in Vejle: bouncy castles, a craft tent, café, live music and a bonfire. In 2025, more than 200 volunteers welcomed around 3,000 guests.
