OUR PASTORS

Pastors Nick and Janina Bowlin of River Church Frankfurt, a bilingual English-German church
Pastor Nick and Janina Bowlin
Meet Pastor Nick Bowlin, a native of China Grove, North Carolina, USA. His journey to salvation began when a minister knocked on his door at the age of eleven. However, he later strayed away from God, getting heavily involved in drugs and alcohol, and life seemed to spiral out of control by the time he was twenty. But a revival meeting changed everything for him – he rededicated his life to the Lord, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and was instantly delivered from drugs. He received strong foundation of the Word of God at a local Rhema Church.
 
At the age of twenty-five, he received a scholarship to The River Bible Institute in Tampa, Florida, where he met his wife, Janina, from Kitzingen, Germany. The couple volunteered together at The River at Tampa Bay Church, serving in the outreach department, where they developed a heart for the lost. Nick had the privilege of traveling to over 50 cities with Revival Ministries International, gaining hands-on training in the areas of  soul-winning, outreaches, in-reaches, mass crusades, bus ministry, bible studies, and church planting. They both graduated with a bachelor’s degree in ministry, and in 2018, they began traveling as full-time evangelists, seeing many people saved and churches equipped to fulfill their eternal assignments.
 
In 2020, the Lord began speaking to Nick and Janina about starting The River Church Frankfurt, as they spent much time ministering in Germany and their hearts broke for the people there. In April 2022, they took a major step of faith and planted The River Church Frankfurt, with a vision of impacting Germany and the whole of Europe for the Kingdom of God. After seeing incredible growth, the church moved to its current location in Frankfurt-Rödelheim in January 2026 to better serve the growing international community.

Our Vision

Germany shall be saved from the North Sea to the Black Forest, from East Germany to the West of Germany. 
God is not finished with Germany! 

SAVE

Our first mission is to seek and save the lost - we go to the highways and hedges to preach the Gospel to every creature!

FIND PURPOSE

Our second mission is to help people find their God-given eternal purpose. To find out God's perfect plan by the power of the Word and The Holy Spirit.

FULFILL PURPOSE

Our third mission is to see people equipped with the Word and The Spirit. We labor to see leaders raised up in their full, God-given potential so they can take their place and make a difference in this world!
