What’s new at IPC
March 2024
Christ is risen! Christ is risen indeed!
This Sunday is Easter Day, a day when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. As a sign of our new life, we will bring flowers to place in a cross at the front of the sanctuary. The flowering cross is a very apt symbol for Easter – from the cross, a symbol of death, comes life!
Daylight Savings Time begins this weekend. Don’t forget to set your clocks ahead one hour this weekend, so that you’re not late for worship on Sunday!
Join us for a joint Maundy Thursday service 7:00 p.m. at St. Andrews Church of Scotland; Chaussée de Vleurgat 181,1050 Brussels.
You are invited to our combined Good Friday service 7:30 p.m. at the Royal Chapel, Rue du Musée 2, 1000 Brussels.
Save the Date!

Our Life at IPC
Welcome!
We have a full program of Choir, Worship, and Fellowship every Sunday, with special events held throughout the year. There are also a variety of educational and fellowship events every week.
Children’s Sunday School is available as needed — children and their teacher leave for Sunday School immediately following the Anthem.
Women of the Church meetings are monthly on Saturday mornings. Watch the website or the Weekend Watch email for details!
Men of the Church meet twice a month on Fridays for drinks and snacks, and meet one Saturday a month for breakfast.
We celebrated our 100th anniversary all last year . Our congregation began with a series of meetings in 1922, ending in the laying of a cornerstone on November 9, 1923, at a church on the Champs de Mars in downtown Brussels. We are excited to begin our second century!
Mission of the Month
March and April 2024
Teacher Training in Madagascar’s Church Schools
The National Schools Director of the Church of Jesus Christ in Madagascar (“FJKM”) wrote to thank us for our support:
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are most grateful to the International Protestant Church Brussels’ support that has been enabling the EBMI Program to extend its scope of activities in the North regions of Madagascar during the year 2023.
Your contribution to the funding of the EBMI Program really impacted the learners’ results and the teachers’ performance and helped them reach the objectives as it is reported in the attached newsletter. We very much appreciate the advocacy that the International Protestant Church Brussels have been making on behalf of the FJKM school children in Madagascar, and we look forward to your continuing support.
