PAIA
We are the facilitating body for
a wide fellowship of churches committed to expressing
together, through proclamation and programmes, the
united witness of the church in South Africa, especially
in matters of national debate and order.
The Council is the national
ecumenical enabler and co-ordinator of inter-church
debate and action. We are well known for the part we
played in the struggle against apartheid, the globally-
condemned oppressive policy of our former Government. We
are now engaged in assisting the reconstruction of the nation and the
development of South Africa's fragile new democracy.
These pages are dedicated to sharing information
about that work together with statements and comments
from our leadership, as well as to respond to any
queries you may have of us.
Through its 27 member churches and
associated para-church organisations, the SACC represents
roughly half of the Christians in South Africa. The national office
is located at Khotso House in Johannesburg. There are also nine
Provincial Councils of Churches working in
close contact with us and for the same aims. They are
governed by representatives of the Provincial churches
as we are governed by our national member-churches.
This site will
keep you up to date with our work and witness. If you require further information or wish to send us a query, please write to us.
