A priority on the agenda is planning for a global gathering in Accra, Ghana, in 2024. Other topics for discussion include the celebration of the Global Christian Forum’s 25th anniversary and a youth gathering in conjunction with the celebration.
The Global Christian Forum will also discuss the ongoing search for Christian unity, reaching new generations of leadership, and encouraging regional and national meetings of Christian leaders.
The forum is a platform wherein representatives from a broad range of Christian churches and inter-church organizations can gather to foster mutual respect and to explore and address together common challenges. It aims to deepen fraternal relationships among Christians that may lead to common witness and shared participation in mission. One of its distinctive marks is the practice of sharing personal and ecclesial faith stories.
The World Council of Churches, together with the Roman Catholic Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, World Evangelical Alliance, and the Pentecostal World Fellowship, supports the work of the Global Christian Forum.
