Produktbeschreibung
New Brethren in Flanders is the story of the planting and remarkable growth of Brethren churches in the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium at the end of the twentieth century. The Evangelische Christengemeenten Vlaanderen (ECV) began in the early 1970s as a result of evangelistic church-planting efforts led by a group of Canadian Christian Brethren missionaries.

As one of those who grew up in these churches notes, ""The Spirit of God, through the ECV's founders, built up an altogether masterly piece of work right in front of us.""
