We feel a strong connection to many people and organisations in Essen and across Germany.

Segen45 is part of the Protestant Church District of Essen.

We are also part of the pilot schemes run by the Protestant Church in the Rhineland.

We are constantly drawing inspiration from, and engaging in dialogue with, similar projects in Hamburg, Berlin, Lübeck, Cologne, Munich and Nuremberg. Do feel free to check out St. Moment, Segensbüro Berlin, segensreich. and Segen. Servicestelle.

We receive creative support from the agency PplusSDESIGN
with brilliant design ideas, and from Pixelquest in developing our website. The blessing was written for us by Christina Brudereck, a theologian and author from Essen. The wonderful photos of us were taken by Stefanie Schön of Schön Fotografie.

We feel a strong connection to many supporters and partners in various churches, such as the Trauteam and grüßgott in the Diocese of Essen. We are grateful for the dialogue with, and the excellent advice from, funeral director Caren Baesch.

There are now a number of projects within the EKD that offer similar services to ours. You can find out more about them via the link below. There are also practical tips on setting up a business, day-to-day operations and legal matters: EKD pastoral agencies
