Evangelical Lutheran Church - Synod of France and Belgium

The Evangelical Lutheran Church - Synod of France and Belgium, or ELC-SFB (French: Église Évangélique Luthérienne Synode de France et de Belgique, or EEL-SFB) is a confessional Lutheran church body in France and Belgium. Around a dozen parishes belong to ELC-SFB. Their locations are listed below.

The ELC-SFB has been a member of the European Lutheran Conference. It has also been a member of the ILC, in which the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod of North America has also been a member. [ [http://www.elc-paris.org/index.html Bienvenue à l'Eglise Luthérienne du Saint Sauveur ] ] The ELC-SFB formed in 1927 by congregations founded during the 19th century when people left the State Lutheran Church in Alsace Lorraine for doctrinal reasons. Outreach started before and after World War 2. The Synod supports francophone churches in Central Africa and is involved in leadership training in West Africa.

The president is the Reverend Jean Thiébaut Haessig, who is also pastor for the congregation in Chatenay Malabry in the Île-de-France Hauts-de-Seine Arrondissement Antony in the southwestern suburbs of Paris. Pastor Haessig is also president of the European Lutheran Conference. Pastor Haessig is also the director of the media outreach "L'Heure Luthérienne" (site: www.mediachrist.com), a spinoff from Lutheran Hour Ministries.
