Almost every day we step into our club house, push open the massive entrance doors and wonder what will happen today. No two days are the same, and we embrace that. For the most part, these unforeseen encounters are at the core of our work: Encounters and relationships with people of all ages and walks of life.
What you might not see from the outside is how many hours we invest in relationships with all of the people around us, even if it's not within a defined offer or project. Big and small stories and encounters that happen between people, and can't be neatly summarised into an end-of-year review. Prayers and contacts that happen because of our faith in God and people, and because we try our best to live out our faith in charity. That's what thrills us about our work.

In the middle of the hectic center of Zurich, we want to create an oasis where people can be accepted for who they are.
In Armenia, where we've had a partner YMCA for the past 15 years, they say that every guest is a gift from God. This is my conviction as well, and I always find it fascinating to see what people God sends to our house.

I love to work with people. I find it fascinating to hear news from all around the world, from different sources and to compare them. I also enjoy hiking and riding my bicycle.
Walking with Jesus for me means learning to let go of my caution and encounter people openly. It would be my pleasure to meet you
