A Worldwide Network of Ecumenical Cooperation

The National Council of Churches is part of a worldwide community of ecumenical organizations fostering cooperation among Christians. As is evident from the listings below, the movement for Christian unity is active at every level of society, from neighborhood ministries to global concerns that span the continents.

Within the NCC structure, local and regional ecumenical organizations are represented through the Ecumenical Networks Standing Committee.
