Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD)
The Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD) is the institutional form chosen by a community of 24 Lutheran, Reformed and United regional churches. German Protestant church structures are based on federal principles at all levels.
Each local congregation is responsible for Christian life in its own area, while each regional church has its own special characteristics and retains its independence.
