Adra Belgium and the floods of 2021
Exhibition
31 May 2025 : 10.30 - 17.3001 June 2025 : 10.30 - 17.00
On 14 and 15 July 2021, Belgium will experience one of the worst disasters in its history. 39 people died, and the damage cost hundreds of millions of euros. In Verviers, one of the towns hardest hit, the damage was considerable, and three and a half years later, even though life has returned to normal, the wounds in people's heads and hearts are still very much alive.
From the outset, Adra Belgium was one of the first associations to intervene on the ground. This was done in 4 main ways: 1. In the first few days after the disaster, we called on around a hundred volunteers who were able to help around 30 families. 2. Subsequently, 72 dehumidifiers were deployed in 300 homes. 3. School equipment donated for 2,500 children. 4. 200 Christmas parcels for disaster-stricken children in Verviers. In addition, an Adra Belgium foodtruck will be offering vegetarian burgers to raise awareness of the association's social and humanitarian work on behalf of the most disadvantaged. A photo exhibition will also be on display.

Description
Dating from the 1st half of the 20th century, this relatively new church exudes an atmosphere of simplicity and simplicity typical of evangelical Protestant churches. But if you pay a little attention, you'll notice some remarkable stones. Because the stones you find here are perhaps not where you think they are...
You yourselves, as living stones, are being built into a spiritual house.
1st letter of Peter, chapter 2, verse 5a.
