KESWICK CONVENTION’S GLOBAL FAMILY

You might be walking through a snow blizzard in Hokkaido, or in the warm Caribbean sunshine of Trinidad, or in the shade of the forests of Belgrave Heights outside Melbourne, or driving along the sophisticated streets of Helsinki.

But in all of these locations you will see banners and posters advertising Keswick!

From its earliest days, the Keswick movement has rippled around the UK and around the world, not through deliberate marketing or slick organisation, but as a movement of the Spirit, picked up by missionaries and nationals who have shared the longing for the spiritual renewal of God’s people for his mission in the world. There is no central management or formal association, but certainly a family likeness and shared biblical commitments.
