A community exploring life together
At Openchurch, church means a community of people exploring life together. And we don't think there's a better place to explore life than with God, who made it.
Single or married, with children or without, young or old, studying, employed or self-employed — there is plenty of room for you here. And a good chance you'll meet people much like you.
Our services are contemporary: songs and preaching in language you can actually follow. We always look forward to saying hello, whether it's your first time or your five-hundredth.
During the week there are social and cultural events too, plus plenty going on for children and adults alike.
Every Sunday at 11.00
Services you won't want to leave
The service is for the whole family. We open the doors at Marketenderiet in Valby for contemporary music, preaching in plain language, and time together around faith in Jesus. We interpret live into English on headsets, and kids' church runs at the same time.
We don't have our own parking, so please arrive 10–15 minutes early to find a space nearby. See the parking map

Children, teens and young adults at Openchurch
On Sundays there's kids' church for ages 3–12 during the service. During the week there are clubs and groups: OC Kids for ages 3–12, OC Teens for ages 10–15 every Wednesday, and .UNG for ages 16–30. All volunteers working with children and young people have a child protection check.
Children and youthNext steps
Grow in faith alongside other people
You don't become part of a church on a Sunday. You become part of it in a home, with about ten people, over time. An OC Group is about ten people who meet to eat, talk, read a bit of the Bible and pray for each other. It's where people discover they're not alone.

Our story
We try new things – to share the same message
When everything shut down during corona, we opened a drive-in church. Since then we've gathered people at Det Ny Teater for A Night of Hope, sung worship with hundreds on City Hall Square and planted a new church in Hillerød. These are just some of the things we've been privileged to be part of – and we believe the best is still ahead of us.
