Crosslinks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Crosslinks is an evangelical Anglican missionary society, and was known as Bible Churchmen's Missionary Society (BCMS) until 1992. BCMS was founded in 1922. The first BCMS missionary was 84 year old Archdeacon Mackay of Saskatchewan, Canada. He worked among the Inuit people of Canada. In 1923, work began in India, followed by China and Burma. Other countries where Crosslinks works include Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania and parts of South America. The Crosslinks name emphasises the society's principle is that Mission is from everywhere to everywhere. The name also helps to make possible work in some of the 60 or so countries where Bible, Church and Missionary are not acceptable.

BCMS also ran the Bible Churchmen's Missionary and Theological College, which later became part of Trinity College, Bristol.
