About us
The Communion of Protestant Churches in Europe (CPCE) is the Protestant voice of Europe for 40 million believers. It comprises 96 Lutheran, Reformed, United, and Methodist churches in Europe and overseas. The CPCE has been based in Vienna since 2007.
About the history of the CPCE: With the Leuenberg Agreement, a historic bridge was built between churches just over 50 years ago (1973): the mutual recognition of Protestant churches in Europe. Since then, a Lutheran pastor can preach from a Reformed pulpit and a Reformed believer can receive communion at a Lutheran service.
