A Message from the President

Welcome to the NCCA website.

The story of the NCCA is one of hope and encouragement, in a world too often characterised by division and fear, the NCCA stands for unity, understanding and reconciliation.
 
The seventeen member Churches of NCCA come out of an amazing array of cultural contexts and represent a significant breadth of Christian understanding.  Being members together of NCCA they are committed to deepening their relationship with each other in order to express more visibly the unity willed by Christ for his Church.
 
And, what's more, the NCCA enables its member Churches to act together for the common good.  NCCA's Christian World Service is a superb example of this aspect of the Council's work.
 
I hope that, like me, you will be inspired by the work and witness of the NCCA.
 
Please let us have your support and prayers.
 
+Richard Appleby
