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.

A common prayer resource has been developed by the World Council of Churches (WCC) and offers prayers from the Middle East to guide in shared moments of intercession and hope.

The focus on the Middle East responds directly to the voices of church leaders who have called for strengthened spiritual solidarity and accompaniment in this time of crisis, considering ongoing war, the destruction of lives, and the deepening humanitarian suffering affecting communities across the region.

The Global Prayer for Peace in the Middle East was held online on 26 March at 15:00 CET and is now available on YouTube or by following the QR code on the resource. You can also read about the event.

 Churches, congregations, and people of goodwill around the world are invited to continue to use these prayers as a shared act of prayer across traditions and contexts.
