Innovative German Church is Growing Despite Persecution: 'It's All Part of God's Plan'

Poisoned land, government opposition and even a police assault against the pastor have not prevented a unique German Church called Wera Forum from becoming the largest in the city of Duisburg.

Wera means belief.

The pastor, Alexander Epp told CBN News, "We always say, come to our building, touch it and listen to the story of how it was built. Then you'll believe."

Epp, an ethnic German who returned from Soviet Russia, says he never faced this kind of persecution from the KGB.
