Frequently Asked Questions

• What will the Community Centre be used for?

With this place, we want to emphasize community. Being more accessible, visible and hospitable to the people around us. A place to draw people in and start community building across all ages. A place where we could start a Saturday night service with a different feel. An incubator for starting alternative communities. A place to invite the international community, by hosting coffee mornings, language classes and so on. A place that is ‘gezellig’ and inviting, where you would like to hang out and have a coffee. A place our youth can call home. And of course a place for all the activities we are currently hosting in our current community centre.

• Will we leave the school?

We will still use the school for our weekend services. The community centre will be for our weekday and other weekend needs.
