 Emmanuel Bible Conventions:For many years, a Missionary Bible Convention was held annually at Emmanuel Bible College, Birkenhead. Its format was similar to that of the Keswick convention.

This convention:  It is many years since the last Emmanuel Bible Convention at the Emmanuel Bible College. Towards the end of 2008, the Lord led the pastor and church leaders to resurrect the convention again, albeit with a different format and venue. The first of these was held last year, and following its success another convention has been arranged for this year. The Emmanuel Bible Convention have been recognised as an 'other Keswick' by  Keswick Ministries.
