About Us

OUR STORY & TEAM

OUR MISSION

Equipping Believers For Works of Service.

Through theological education and practical mentoring, Trinitas Akademie equips Christians to deepen their understanding of Scripture, grow in Christ-like character, and serve their local churches and beyond.

OUR VISION

Raising Up Leaders.

To raise up Austrian and international leaders.

To impact Vienna and the nations.

Through a Gospel-centered, Church-based academy and apprenticeship.

OUR STORY

For The Glory of Our Triune God.

Born out of a shared desire to strengthen the church in Austria, Trinitas Akademie was founded through a partnership between New City Wien and Christus Gemeinde Wien. Our aim is to provide solid biblical-theological training and to develop future church leaders for service in our congregations and in other churches of similar theological conviction throughout Austria, all for the glory of our triune God.

OUR APPROACH

Formation of the whole person.

True discipleship shapes the mind, the hands, and the heart - all three are woven into everything we do.
