Abstract
[Since the 1970s what can be described as a minor nonviolent revolution has been taking place in Germany. This revolution is faith based and has been occurring as a result of the tremendous upsurge in the numbers of Africans migrating to the country. This chapter explores this phenomenon and seeks to address what the implications of this migration are for Christian identity and ecumenical partnership in the German context.]
