On Sunday, 13 September 2026, we marked a joyful and significant moment for our Anglican community in Karlsruhe.

During a festive joint service of the Old Catholic and Anglican congregations in Karlsruhe, the Statutes of the newly founded St. Columban’s Episcopal Church Karlsruhe e.V. were formally signed.

With these signatures, our new Anglican association has officially been established, providing a strong foundation for the future life and ministry of St. Columban’s in Karlsruhe.

On this special occasion, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude in particular to the Old Catholic congregation in Karlsruhe and their parish priest for their friendship, hospitality, and generous support. Their companionship and the spirit of ecumenical fellowship we share have been a great encouragement to our Anglican community. We are deeply thankful to them, as well as to everyone who has accompanied and supported us on this journey.

We now look forward with faith, hope, and joy to this new chapter in the life of St. Columban’s.

– The Reverend Robert Vukovic
