Our PURPOSE

  • to grow in unity as it offers common Christian witness in and to the world.

  • to provide, in Christian love, a forum for addressing the needs of church and society.

  • to speak, whenever possible, with one voice proclaiming the gospel
    of Jesus Christ, especially on moral and ethical issues.

  • to promote ecumenical relationships and activities among pastors and congregations.

  • to be God’s servant people, both clergy and laity, giving faithful response to Christ’s prayer, “That all may be one.”

National denominational leaders have referred to Christian Associates as the “most outstanding metropolitan regional ecumenical agency in
the United States”.

In all its endeavors, Christian Associates strives to promote the understanding
that the church is ONE in its commitment to Jesus Christ.

Leading worship as part of Christian Unity celebrations are
Major James LaBossiere of The Salvation Army and
Bishop Kurt Kusserow, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
