Who are we?

Our Church is an inclusive Protestant Church with a Reformed flavour. Our mission as a Protestant community is to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and in deed. That is how we try to be of service to our city, Beirut.

As far as our organisation is concerned, we are a congregationalist Church. That means that we are not subordinate to any higher body and that all the important decisions are made on the level of the local Church.

The National Evangelical Church of Beirut (NECB) is a Lebanese Arabic-speaking Church. The International Community Church is the daughter of the NECB. The two congregations worship in the same building in Downtown Beirut.

The following persons lead the Church in its ministry:

  • Dr. Habib Badr, Senior Pastor of the National Evangelical Church of Beirut
  • Robert Hamd, Pastor of the International Community Church
  • Aida Abdul-Samad, Secretary of the Church Council
  • Jean Dagher, Treasurer
  • Nabil Maamabashi, Director of Spiritual Life
  • Madeleine Kattan, Administrative Assistant / Office Manager
  • Ramzi Sabra, Organist
