Church partnerships represent a very intensive and long-term form of partnership. In contrast to project\/topic partnerships, here churches in Switzerland and abroad are in contact with each other. Additional activities concern in particular the joint theological exchange.<\/p>\n<p>Due to difficult political contexts, such intensive and long-term church partnerships are currently only possible to a very limited extent with our partner churches abroad. They also require a mutual clarification of expectations and committed groups of people on both sides. Apart from the possibilities within the framework of a project\/topic partnership, Mission 21 can only offer additional services by individual agreement. We strive for integration as well as the use of synergies with existing offers and opportunities (for example, within the framework of visits during the Mission Synod).<\/p>\n\t\t\t<h2>Educational work and inspiring encounters<\/h2>\t\t\t\n<p>Whether it's for your confirmation class, senior group, or during your church council retreat, our educational offerings provide insights into global connections and cross-border experiences.<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mission-21.org\/en\/what-we-do\/educational-offer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u25ba Educational offerings from Mission 21<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We would be happy to visit you.
