What’s new at IPC
October 2026
Sunday Worship will be at 11:15 as usual with Pastor Phil bringing a message entitled “A Revolution of God’s Love”, based upon the lectionary reading from the Gospel of Matthew.
NEXT SUNDAY, 25 October, is our annual Harvest Auction after Worship during the Fellowship time. The auction always provides interesting items to bid on so think about what you might bring (baked goods, garden delights, craft items, vouchers ….) and imagine what you might be able to find. It’s always good fun and your church council has decided that all funds raised this year will go to support Oasis.
Sunday School will be resuming on 25 October as well and will then meet on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month. Classes are foreseen for children in the general age range of elementary school though pre-school children are welcome as well. Classes will start after the anthem on these two Sundays so that children can also participate in the Worship experience.
There are some roadworks in the neighborhood but detours are marked so the church is easily accessible by car and the 41 bus is running as usual.
Our Wednesday evening Bible study continues while the in-person Bible study, on Tuesday evenings will be taking short break but will resume shortly.

Our Life at IPC
Welcome!
The International Protestant Church of Brussels is an inclusive church, welcoming all!!
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 held monthly on a Saturday morning. Watch the website or the Weekend Watch email for details!
Men of the Church meet, usually on the last Saturday of the month, for breakfast.
A weekly Bible Study is held on Zoom on Wednesday evenings.
We celebrated our 100th anniversary in 2023. 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
October 2026
Oasis Welkom Project
Inspired by the life, teaching, and example of Jesus Christ, the purpose of Oasis is to transform communities, and to work with people who are vulnerable and excluded from community.
The Oasis Welkom Project has been one of our mission projects for many years. In the past our donations have helped cover the cost of maintaining a helpline, printing safety-plan flyers, offering language classes in French and initiating support groups for women who have been victims of human trafficking and/or domestic violence. These are all on-going activities.
Many of the beneficiaries are women from Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries. However, within the past two years, there has been a significant increase in the number of Portuguese and Spanish speaking women coming to Oasis for help, particularly trans women who are often trapped in prostitution…
