Baptist twinning

Abstract

"For the past 10 years I have been involved with Baptist twinning in Israel. Our small group is linked to the Central Baptist Association and seeks to build relationships with the Arabic speaking churches belonging to the Association of Baptist Churches in Israel—about 3000 believers in 20 churches. They have informal links with their fellow Palestinian Christians in the West Bank and Gaza and they also seek to build bridges with the various groups of Messianic believers. Many Christians in the UK are unaware of their existence and so we have tried to tell their story and to foster relationships between churches there and here"
