The principle aim of ecumenism is to promote unity among Christian churches’ as we respond to the prayer of Jesus ...
I pray that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe that you have sent me (John 17:21)
Our key objective is the advancement of the Christian religion in our villages, towns and communities by sharing the love of Christ through:
- visible unity - one faith one God
- common witness – prayer, worship and evangelism
- serving together – meeting human needs, breaking down barriers, seeking justice peace and caring for creation
- local partnerships – ecumenical churches and project
