Do Baptist Churches co-operate together at all?
In Ireland there is an Association of Baptist Churches. This is made up of local churches who have voluntarily decided to work together in matters of common interest. Organising activities between approximately 110 churches on the whole island naturally leads to the need for organisation and administration and therefore there is an office, Secretaries and administrative staff jointly employed by the churches to do this work. They have no power over any of the individual churches and are servants of the churches rather than passing down dogmas from power brokers on a Council or governing body.
