Sister Church Pairing
Starting in 1998, the ministry of the former Mission Facilitator Etienne Bote-Tshiek included the Sister Church Pairing Program, and Church-to-Church or Congregation-to-Congregation Twinning Programs. This Ministry has led to better understanding between members of congregations that live far away from each other by the exchange of different experiences in faith for Christ, the head of his global church. Opportunities such as the exchange of visitors at the grass roots, and of prayers lifted to God on behalf of people on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean are being observed.
The mission of the Sister Pairing Sub-Committee is to strengthen the partnership of CPK and PEVA by making it more meaningful at the congregational level through the pairing of partner churches; to encourage participation of sister churches in proclaiming the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ; to promote fellowship through interaction and communication between members of sister churches, and to encourage the sharing of spiritual gifts.
30 PEVA churches have been paired with 34 CPK churches and are whole heartily participating in the sister church pairing program. PEVA's Presbyterian Women also is paired with the Presbyterian Women in CPK. Prayers are being lifted to God on behalf of people on both sides of the Atlantic. The Congo Partnership Ministries has guidelines for the Ministry along with enhancing the Sister Church relationship guidelines.
