DALMATIA

(Gk. Dalmatía)

A Roman province located on the northeastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. Dalmatia provided a model for the subsequent troublesome history of the Balkan states. This mountainous area adjacent to Macedonia came under Roman domination in 228 b.c.e. However, Rome never succeeded in completely stabilizing its control over the region. Dalmatia took its name from the Delmantae or Dalmante, tribal peoples who originally occupied the area. During NT times Dalmatia was associated with the province of Illyricum (2 Tim. 4:10). Various ancient sources testify that the church in Dalmatia was susceptible to cults, syncretism, and internal strife.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
