Interchurch relations of the BFP

2. with the Association of Free Evangelical Churches (VEF)
The Association of Free Evangelical Churches consists of nine member churches and five guest churches. The concern of the VEF is the cooperation of the churches and should thereby visibly express the unity in faith. As BFP we belong to the member churches.

3. with the German Evangelical Alliance (DEA)
In the German Evangelical Alliance, Christians from different churches and communities come together to maintain Christian fellowship, to be strengthened in their common faith and to work together in building the Kingdom of God.

5. to other independent churches and church groups
Through mission, historical processes, revivalist awakenings and leadership personalities, many independent individual congregations have come into being in Germany. There are many contacts with these congregations and their leaders, of varying intensity, on a local or supra-local level.
