Welcome to the homepage of the Brethren Educational Network/Réseau de Formation des Frères.

The Brethren Educational Network has the goal of encouraging training and leadership development in the worldwide Brethren movement of churches, and of linking people across the world who want to see improvements in spiritual and practical leadership in these churches. 

But you do not have to have a Brethren background to benefit from this site.  All who think that the materials on the site may be helpful are welcome to make use of them.

Our aim is to post a wide range of materials which may be helpful for training and leadership development in churches – including course materials, booklists, papers reflecting on training needs and approaches, links to other relevant sites, and so on.  See the relevant pages for more details.

Additional material.  

We welcome additional suitable material for the site.  This can be in any of the main world languages.  If you would like to submit material, please send it electronically to benrff.  The editorial panel will then consider whether it is suitable for posting on the site, and whether any changes are needed for that purpose. The Network has at least one editor for each of the main world languages.
