What is the Heart on Fire school?​

The Heart on Fire School is a 10-month adventure for young Christians aged 18 and older, who have completed their education and want more: more depth, more authenticity, more of Jesus.

We dream of a generation that is passionate for Jesus, for people, and for Switzerland. Young people who are boldly moving forward and passionately committed to making God’s Kingdom visible in this world.

The Heart on Fire School is a part-time program. This means that you can continue working in your profession while engaging with a variety of topics, allowing you to grow in your personal relationship with God.
