Who we Are

Bethlehem Bible College is an interdenominational Christian Bible college, located in Bethlehem, Palestine. The College offers a BA program in Biblical studies and Christian education that combines high academic standards with a deep spiritual commitment to Christ. It is accredited by the Palestinian Ministry for Higher Education and Middle East Association of Theological Education (MEATE) as a four-year college.

To host the Summer of Service, the College is working with two partnering organizations:

Holy Land Trust (HLT) is a not-for-profit organization established in Bethlehem in 1998. Through a commitment to the principles of nonviolence, the Holy Land Trust seeks to strengthen and empower the Palestinian community in developing spiritual, pragmatic and strategic approaches that will allow it to resist all forms of oppression and build a future that makes the Holy Land a global model and pillar of understanding, respect, justice, equality and peaceful coexistence.

Middle East Fellowship (MEF) is a U.S. based, Christian 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to faithfully serving indigenous churches and organizations that strengthen their own communities through economic development programs, community projects, children's programs and emergency relief efforts.
