At NDIC we will offer a variety of Life Groups which are a great way for Expats to begin building relationships within a community of people who share like interests. If you are new to the Netherlands and have questions, or if you would like more information about NDIC please feel free to contact our office via the information above. If you are interested in attending a Sunday celebration at NDIC, please check out our website for information about where NDIC meets. NDIC will officially open on 16 september 2007.
