How We Work

The NCCA gathers together Churches and Christian communities which confess the Lord Jesus Christ as God and Saviour according to the Scriptures. We commit to deepen our relationship with each other and to work together towards the fulfilment of common witness, proclamation and service, to the glory of the one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

“What does Nicaea offer as we seek a vision for Christian UNITY today?”

Speaking during an International Partner Consultation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Württemberg/Germany on 26 September, World Council of Churches president from Europe, Rev. Dr Susan Durber, asks: “how can Nicaea help us grow into deeper union with Christ?”

In most parts of the Christian world today, we have come a long way; from contest and competition, from mutual suspicion and hatred, to collaboration and even, sometimes, to real, if imperfect, communion.” Rev. Dr Susan Durber
