On Saturday 26 September, our church hosted an ordination for 3 deacons and one priest. This type of service would normally take place in a cathedral, but as Brussels had been declared ‘code red’ and the Sint-Elisabethkerk is one of the largest churches in our diocese, we were asked to help, and of course, we said 'Yes'.Read more about the ordinations in Bishop Robert's blog post here.More photos can be found on our Facebook page here.
Our Chaplain Stephen has become a Canon of the Diocese in Europe. The collation took place during Morning Prayers led by Bishop Robert on Friday 25 September 2020. Congratulations Canon Stephen Murray!!
