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 held monthly on a Saturday morning. Watch the website or the Weekend Watch email for details!

Men of the Church meet one Saturday a month for breakfast.

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, April 2025

ECOFO de Kivoga

Every year we dedicate one mission project to Solidarité Protestante, a Christian charity in Belgium that reaches out to communities in very poor areas of the world. Their current project that began in November 2024 is situated in Burundi.

“ECOFO de Kivoga” is a school in the rural area of Kivoga, Burundi, serving children from grades 1-9. Currently 961 students are enrolled (447 girls, 514 boys). This school is well known for its quality of education and the Christian values that are taught. Thanks to the high rate of successful scores on the national exams, this school attracts children from all over Burundi, not just those living in the area.

Up until now, they have been using facilities belonging to another school to accommodate the 270 students who need to board since they live far away. Unfortunately, they will have to vacate these buildings soon, sometime during 2025.

ECOFO has now begun construction of their own boarding facilities. They need financial support to build 3 dormitory sections, 1 cafeteria/study area and 1 kitchen. They will also need beds, chairs, and tables. This facility is being built in an area surrounded by nature, not far from the classrooms. which will provide the students with a calm, quiet atmosphere to study during the school year. With the proper infrastructure in place, these students will also be better equipped to prepare and pass their national exams with success, opening up possibilities for higher education and a better future.

Working with Solidarité Protestante, we can help provide the financial assistance that this school needs. Your donations will make a big difference in these children’s lives. Thank you for your generosity. If you would like to qualify for a Belgian tax exemption, please contact Nancy Evans.
