WHO WE ARE
Core Purpose - Aim - Priorities 2007-2012
The purpose of The South Australian Council of Churches Inc is to:
- serve the churches of South Australia in their deeper engagement in ecumenism
and - nurture and nourish the churches' understanding, spiritual growth and practice of ecumenism
so that, as Jesus prayed,
that they may all be one.
As you, Father, are in me and I am in you,
may they also be in us,
so that the world may believe
that you have sent me.
(Gospel of John 17:21)
Aim
To fulfil its Core Purpose, SACC will create the space for the churches' learning and exploration on ecumenism so that the churches may be drawn into more visible expressions of Christian unity, in response to the prayer of Jesus, the movement of the Holy Spirit and the hopes and concerns of the whole people of God.
