  • Conference: “Water: too much, too little”

    Chapel for Europe Rue Van Maerlantstraat 22-24, Brussels, Belgium

    Together with ELSiA, the Chapel for Europe invites you to the conference "Water: too much, too little" on Wednesday, 2 October 2024 from 9:30 to 12:30. Climate change increases the intensity of weather phenomena. This is most evident in the case of the element without which life on our planet is impossible: water. Floods and water shortages often occur in the same area at different times of the year. Floods endanger residential areas and submerge agricultural land for long periods. Extreme water shortages make farming difficult, if not impossible, in areas that were considered the “vegetable garden of Europe” just a few decades ago. Prolonged drought is causing forest fires in southern Europe to occur earlier in the year, with devastating consequences. The natural habitat of rivers and the biodiversity of life in and around them are in danger of being lost. Conflicts of interest over water are increasing in Europe – between agriculture and industry, between drinking water supply and energy production, between transport and housing. As part of the ‘Season of Creation‘, which ends on 4 October, the the European Laudato Si’ Alliance (ELSiA) wants to look at how we manage water from different perspectives: We will begin […]

  • Vernissage of the art exhibition “Burnt Landscapes” by Claire Forgeot

    Chapel for Europe Rue Van Maerlantstraat 22-24, Brussels, Belgium

    The Chapel for Europe together with the European Laudato Si’ Alliance (ELSiA), invites you to the Vernissage of the art exhibition “Burnt Landscapes”, paintings by Claire Forgeot on Tuesday, 1 October at 19:00 at the Chapel. The Chapel for Europe is delighted to host the paintings by Claire Forgeot and to have her here to tell us more about them. This opportunity has been offered to us by the European Laudato Si' Alliance (ELSia), which wanted to organize an event in Brussels to celebrate the end of the Creation Season, combining the exhibition of the French painter, whose work are inspired by the experience of burnt landscapes, with a half-day conference the following morning on the theme of water. Since 2004, after the shock of witnessing the burning of a mountain slope on a Greek island, Claire Forgeot has been working on the traces of fire in the landscape. Initially, her focus was on calcined black and its relationship to color. Then she experimented with the fire itself by scarifying paper. Later, in search of a metaphorical herbarium, she collected plants from gardens and trees found in the landscapes of France and Greece. When talking about her work, the image […]

    COMECE and the Chapel for Europe invite you to a commemoration mass for Mgr Noël Treanor on Tuesday, 24 September 2024,  at 19:00 at the Chapel. Completely unexpected Mgr Noël Treanor died on Sunday, August 11, 2024. With his immense European experience, being a polyglot and a fervent supporter of the European integration, he served these last years as the Apostolic Nuncio to the European Union. Whoever met him was amazed by his kindness and openness, his commitment and his modesty. He was beloved by many and was a great friend and supporter of the Chapel for Europe. In his time as Secretary General of COMECE,  he was decisively involved in the founding and beginnings of the Chapel for Europe. Come join us in prayer that he may enjoy eternal rest.
