Lutheran Evangelical Church of Denmark Visiting our Church
Rev. Henrik Weigh-Poulsen, bishop of the diocese of Aarhus, which belongs to the Lutheran Evangelical Church of Denmark, preached the sermon at NECB on Sunday, February 24, 2019. The bishop, accompanied by a group of 16 District Deans (Provosts) and 2 staff members of the diocese, are in Lebanon on a study tour organized for them by the Danmission Organization. One of the Deans joined Rev. Badr in offering the pastoral prayer and the whole group sang a hymn in Danish during the service. Rev. Badr and members of the church council met with the group before and after worship to introduce them to NECB and to discuss the situation of the church in Lebanon and the region. Rev. Dr. Rima Nasrallah also spoke to the group on the same issues afterwards.
