Holy Trinity Brussels
More From Brussels podcaster, Alison Turner, ducked out of the cold in mid January 2013 to explore an Anglican church just a stone's throw from Louise, but virtually invisible from the street. She met a congregant, Pamela Clements, who described what goes on in the church, and explained what she was doing there on such a cold night. Who knew that the chaplain has a very special relationship with the Queen? More information: http://www.holytrinity.be/ pamela.clements@telenet.be precentor@holytrinity.be
