Who we are
Pingstkyrkan Lund is a diverse community of believers united by faith in Jesus Christ and a shared desire to worship and grow together. As a church of many nations, Pingstkyrkan Lund is home to several language-based fellowships.
Pentecost International is the English-speaking fellowship of Pingstkyrkan Lund — a place where the international community can gather and grow as an integral part of the wider church family.
Our Mission
As a fellowship of Pingstkyrkan Lund, we seek to make Jesus known, believed, loved and followed among the English-speaking community in and around Lund. This mission is rooted in the personal growth of each believer, our growth together as a fellowship, and a deepening care for those around us.
We are always glad to meet new people in Lund, and it is a joy when our fellowship becomes a doorway into the wider Pingstkyrkan Lund family.
Our Shared Faith
We believe in one God, revealed in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe that humanity was created good, but through free will chose to sin and thereby lost fellowship with God.
We believe that every person can have a restored, personal fellowship with God through salvation in Jesus Christ
We believe that the Bible is the word of God to all people and the guiding standard for faith in Him
We believe that believer's baptism signifies the burial of the old nature and a resurrection to new life in Jesus Christ
We believe that the baptism of the Spirit is an experience that gives the believer power to be a witness for God and equips them for the life God intended
We believe the church has the task of expressing God's love for the world through concrete actions, and to help people to receive restored relationships first and foremost toward God, and then to their fellow man and finally to all creation.
We believe and patiently wait for the Lord Jesus Christ to return and gather together all believers to Himself and establish new heavens and a new earth where evil does not exist.
Our Vision
We want to be an international fellowship within Pingstkyrkan Lund where people love God wholeheartedly, care for one another and share his love with others. We hope that every encounter with our fellowship — whether a first visit or a passing conversation — plants the seed of a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ.

Our Meetings
Sunday Service
We gather every Sunday at 11am together with the whole Pingstkyrkan Lund congregation. On the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month, we also hold an English service from 2pm – 4pm, including worship, testimonies, a sermon and prayer. Join us upstairs for fika afterwards.
Wednesday Service
We meet on Wednesdays for prayer, in person or online, from 6.30pm to 7.30pm. Childcare is available. We do not meet on the last Wednesday of the month. We join the Kyrkfredag (Church Friday) gathering of Pingstkyrkan Lund.
In addition to our Sunday and Midweek services, we also gather for various events and activities, both within specific ministries and departments. Keep an eye on our events calendar for any changes in meeting times during our joint weeks, and stay informed about all our gatherings.
Joint Weeks
One Church, Several Fellowships, One Body
Joint Weeks are dedicated times when all fellowships of Pingstkyrkan Lund gather together for shared worship and congregational life. Services during Joint Week may include a midweek service and a Sunday service held together across the whole church.
Annual General Meetings may also take place during Joint Week, where members gather to discuss and make decisions on church matters — typically following the Sunday service.
Service times and schedules can vary between Joint Weeks. Please check the calendar for upcoming dates and times.
Voluntering Opportunities
Volunteering is a great way to get plugged into the fellowship, contribute to developing the fellowship, and serve Jesus at the same time. Sometimes finding where to start from can be a challenge. The list below includes some of the many ways one can volunteer in the fellowship.
Join the prayer & intercessory team. This team meets once every other week to pray for the fellowship, our wider church family and specific needs of members.
Periodically check up & follow up both new and existing members of the fellowship. Spend some time with members who may be unwell or are in the hospital and would appreciate a visit.
Help to keep our premises looking nice. Check that common and shared areas are clean and ready for use before and after the service. This may include arranging chairs for prayer meetings upstairs or decorating for special Sunday gatherings.
Be the first face people see. Greet guests at the door, hand out bulletins, and help with seating. Staff the Welcome Table to share information about our fellowship, upcoming activities and service times. Ensure that movement in the auditorium remains unobtrusive during the service.
Help set up and operate sound, lighting and projection for our services. No prior experience is required — if you have an interest in audio and video, we will help you learn everything you need.
We partner with some grocery stores to make food (that would have otherwise gone to waste) available to people in need. You can dedicate some of your time and skills to pick up, transport, sort, repack and distribute the food.
Join the singers and the music band who lead and assist the congregation in corporate praise and adoration during our services and other events.

Mathjälpen Lund
Our social outreach program delivering food aid
Mathjälpen is a social outreach program of the Pentecostal Church in Lund. With this program we want to support those who may be having a hard time financially.
We do this by collecting short-dated food items from our partners. The food becomes part of a grocery bag, providing an environmental solution to food waste.
Since we only distribute what we receive, the availability, contents and quantity of the food bag varies. It should therefore not be seen as complete, but as an aid along the way. To take part in a grocery bag, contact us and make an application. Depending on whether we are able to take new applications, we will connect with you.
