WELCOME

This is Zibi and Magda and we want to welcome you to our adventure - Krakow City Church. We have created this blog to provide information for our friends around the world about what we believe God is calling us to do. Here we will present information about Krakow, some statistics, our plans and development of the church we want to start. We hope this blog to be a source of information but also inspiration!

At the beginning of this year, after a time of prayer and seeking God, we decided to move to Krakow in 2009 to start a church there. A group of friends chose to join us and right now we have a team of 10 people who either are in Krakow or will move there with us in January.

So join us in this exciting journey! Here we go....

Welcome to Krakow - a city where tradition harmoniously blends with modernity. Where care for age-old heritage is accompanied by the development of modern technologies and creative invention of the inhabitants and people that work here, and the extensive offer of spending free time and genius loci of Krakow make it a fine city to live and work in.
Krakow is currently inhabited by approximately 760 thousand permanent residents, but every year it also becomes a home to several thousand or more people that live here temporarily, mainly students. Krakow is the second largest city in Poland. It is not only an administrative center of the Małopolskie Voivodship, but also an intra-regional scientific and economic center - a valuable partner for its investors. The economic significance of Krakow is reinforced by the demographic potential of the region - approximately 8 million people live within a 100 km radius of the city. An additional advantage is the fact that 60% of the inhabitants of our city are people under age 45. The intellectual potential of Krakow is created by 22 universities, nearly 20 thousand academic lecturers (including approximately 1 800 professors) and 190 thousand students.
