Host Family Ministry

ICF realizes that Christ welcomes everybody to be welcome to others. Hospitality is therefore a crucial part of our ministry. Yet, Dutch culture is - in contrast to many others - not so open to hospitality as one might like. The presence of so many cool foreigners in Wageningen provided a compelling invitation to Dutch families to change this. As a result, several Dutch host families would want to welcome you for a meal, a chat and a cup of coffee or tea. Many of us have lived abroad ourselves, and all of us share the wish to share food & food for thought with .... YOU!
Over the last year we've had dinner with people from many different countries like Ethiopia, Finland, Iraq, Ghana, Bolivia, Brazil, Israel, Indonesia, China, Kenia, Vietnam, France, Namibia, Germany, Belarussia, Brazil.
If you would also be interested in meeting a Dutch family in their own home, please sign up for this after the biweekly church service.
Feel free to say hello to us if you see us at ICF!

With warm regards,
Menno and Elize Lam
