River Church Frankfurt

Lerne Pastor Nick Bowlin kennen, geboren in China Grove, North Carolina, USA. Sein Weg zum Heil begann, als im Alter von elf Jahren ein Pastor an seine Tür klopfte. Nachdem er in jungen Jahren vom Glauben abgekommen war und mit Drogen und Alkohol kämpfte, führte ein Erweckungstreffen dazu, dass er sein Leben dem Herrn neu widmete, vom Heiligen Geist erfüllt und von den Drogen befreit wurde. Eine solide Grundlage im Wort Gottes erhielt er in einer örtlichen Rhema-Kirche. Heute dient er als Pastor der River Church Frankfurt.

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.
