We love to hear from you!

Pictured:  Wolf & Linda Kollacks

Over the years, we know several thousand people have joined us in ministry here in Brussels.  Some are still here, and a few stayed for many years, but most of us were here for relatively short assignments with companies, diplomatic missions, military postings and sabbaticals.  However you came to us, we are grateful for your presence, and we love hearing from you. You were and still are a blessing to us.  Please keep in touch.

To that end, this page is dedicated to you!  Please send us an email greeting and we’d be happy to post it on the website.  We’re especially interested in hearing about your family’s growing, the dates you were with us here in Brussels, memories of church life “back then”, and any other significant notes to pass on to old friends. 

If you are interested in contacting anyone, get in touch with the church office at office@ipcbrussels.org and we'll forward your email on to that person/family.   Also if you are in touch with other alumni regularly, please send the office a note with their addresses to add to our  list.
