Building the global family

Keswick in Osaka, Japan

I was driving down the main street of San Fernando.

In the pleasant heat of South Trinidad, there it was – a banner advertising the Keswick Convention. Shuffling carefully through the snow in Hokkaido, north Japan, I entered the auditorium where a banner headline again proclaimed: ‘Keswick: All One in Christ’, with no linguistic concessions to non-English speakers. And the same is taking place in Blantyre in Malawi, alongside Lake Balaton in Hungary, in Halifax Nova Scotia, on the beautiful Cayman Islands, at a summer camp over New Year in Rotorua, New Zealand and in many related events across Australia, the Caribbean, North America, Europe, Africa and Asia.

Keswick Fellowship

This year sees the launch of the Keswick Fellowship, consolidating links with Bible Conventions across the UK and worldwide.
