Belonging
For churches wanting to join with FIEC, a comprehensive information pack is available from the FIEC office. The procedure for affiliation is explained and FIEC ministries are outlined in greater detail, together with samples of some of our publications and resources.
FIEC works in partnership with several other evangelical organisations and recognises it has a responsibility to promote gospel unity and combine resources where this can be used to best effect for the glory of God and the extension of His Kingdom.
Individual evangelical Christians can support this vital ministry to Bible churches by joining the Partners' Scheme. Partners receive a church directory and at least three mailings a year from the FIEC office with news, views and research as well as a twice-yearly Together magazine and monthly e-mail of items for prayer.
Liberal Churches and the Roman Catholic church are not welcome.

Famous quotes containing the word belonging:
“We can most safely achieve truly universal tolerance when we respect that which is characteristic in the individual and in nations, clinging, though, to the conviction that the truly meritorious is unique by belonging to all of mankind.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“In all cultures, the family imprints its members with selfhood. Human experience of identity has two elements; a sense of belonging and a sense of being separate. The laboratory in which these ingredients are mixed and dispensed is the family, the matrix of identity.”
—Salvador Minuchin (20th century)
“We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”
—Aldo Leopold (1886–1948)
