On 15th November, the Chaplain-President represented the Anglican community in Belgium at the celebration of King's Day in the presence of T.M. King Albert II and Queen Paola, first at the Te Deum in the Roman Catholic cathedral in Brussels, presided by Mgr Jean Kockerols, then at an Academic Session of Parliament, chaired by Eliane Tillieux (President of the Chamber of Representatives) and Stephanie D'Hose (President of the Senate). The session concerned the role of women in Belgian public life, so it was a special pleasure that for the first time the Presidents of the Chamber of Representatives and of the Senate are both women.
