EKD

The Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD) is the institutional form chosen by a community of 23 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. Without in any way diminishing this autonomy, the EKD carries out joint tasks with which its members have entrusted it. The EKD has the following governing bodies, all organised and elected on democratic lines: the Synod, the Council and the Church Conference. They are responsible for fulfilling the EKD's tasks as laid down in the Constitution of the EKD.
