We’re excited about God

We’re excited about God and the good things He’s doing on earth, and love that we get to be part of it!

Personal revival, Kingdom impact

International Bible Fellowship is a community of worshippers in Buchs SG, Switzerland. We exist to ignite individual hearts until Heaven meets Earth. We gather to encounter God’s presence, where personal revival starts.

It’s all about God’s presence

Worship creates a space for us to experience the tangible presence of our good Father. We believe it’s what we’re all created for.

Gather with us

We’re so honored to host people from around the world every week. We’d love for you to visit us for an event or Sunday service.

Latest messages

The Great Omission

Tonight Scott Corwin guided us with his message of the “Great Omission”. In Matthew 29:19 we learn of the importance of not just accepting Christ, but to embrace the idea of being a Disciple of Christ. Using an analogy of how we grow from infants to children to adults to parents, so grows our faith from acceptance to learning to guiding. Thank you Scott!

Wisdom and Folly

Paul continued with our Wisdom and Life series and lead us through several Proverbs which gave insight on how the Bible teaches us about the act of gaining wisdom and the cautions of folly.

Need prayer?

There are times when life is overwhelming, when all we have is questions. In those moments, hope can feel far away. The great thing about prayer is that it shifts our perspective toward the One who stands ready to listen. No matter what you’re facing, we’d love to pray with you!
