Pastors and lectors accompany the congregation. All baptized Christians, including children, are invited to Holy Communion in the Protestant Church. Grape juice is served upon request. Services every 1st and 3rd Sunday and on holidays at 10:45 am in the Friedenskirche Gallspach (barrier-free access). Exception: Good Friday 5:00 p.m.; Holy Eve and New Year's Eve: 5:30 p.m. The daughter parish Grieskirchen-Gallspach was founded in **1953** under **Pastor Josef Schramm**. Previously, the area had been incorporated into the parish of Wallern, but as early as 1931, Superintendent Jakob Ernst Koch IV established regular services in Gallspach. **Ernst Oskar Ziegler** was assigned as the first pastor to serve the parish. However, he died early in 1954 and Father Pohl became emeritus in 1960. In all those times until his death in 1981, the curator of the first hour, Mr. Adolf Kraus, was the soul of the parish - always available, always ready to talk and always available for any service. After a long construction period, the consecration of the Friedenskirche could be celebrated on **June 24, 1962**. During these years, many spa guests, especially from Germany, visited the spa town of Gallspach. Thus, numerous visitors came to the church service celebrations. However, due to changes in the health guidelines, the number of patients in the Zeileis Institute decreased continuously in the last years of the last century. For this reason, a relatively small congregation now celebrates Sunday services. These are mostly held by the respective preacher of the Sunday service in the mother parish Wallern. As a result, the service in the Friedenskirche starts at 10:45 am. *(excerpts from the book "Evangelisch in Oberösterreich", Leopold Temmel 1982)* Geographical size ------------------- The area of the daughter parish Grieskirchen-Gallspach covers the entire western and southern parishes of the political district of Grieskirchen.
