I probably never shared about our church building project on this blog. This is a rather recent development. Actually, it's been many years that the church leadership realised that our current space is way too small. We are just occupying the third floor in the Conference building, and that's maybe sufficient for a congregation of 50-60, but not for 100+. In fact, every week I tend to leave this place with a headache, because of all these noises on a rather small space.
Nevertheless, the Lord has been good to us, and we have found an adequate place to buy, in a nice residential area in the south east of Brussels. I consider it a miracle how He has led in the financing of this project, enabling us to raise 100.000 Euro last year in May, and now even raise 50.000 Euro more to do the necessary renovations. Of course 100.000 Euro is not enough to buy a church building in Brussels, but the rest is being loaned to us by the Inter-European Divsion in Berne, Switzerland. So we will have to pay off a mortgage now, but there are so many advantages in owning this building.
Currently, our brethren are still busy with the renovations. I went there last Sunday to help feeding them, together with some other Sisters. I was quite impressed by what I saw there. We are all excited to move in there at the end of October, Lord willing!
