BUILDING BRIDGES, OVERCOMING PREJUDICES TO CREATE AND NURTURE RELATIONSHIPS!
French Spainish English    
Welcome to Global Christian Forum !

We hope that the information you find here will help you to discover what we believe is a promising and unique process. It began in the late 1990s. For several years we worked quietly, without much publicity, away from the limelight. Now we want to make known what has happened, what is going on and what we are aiming at.

The Global Christian Forum is about bringing into conversation with one another Christians and churches from very different traditions who have little or never talked to each other. It is about building bridges where there are none, overcoming prejudices, creating and nurturing new relationships.

We have become convinced that our churches and organizations could benefit greatly from a Forum where they could speak with one another face to face, pray for one another directly, learn from one another, and together gain insights into common problems that could help all to respond to them more effectively.

Our vision has been confirmed by the first fully representative and worldwide Global Christian Forum meeting that took place on 6 – 9 November 2007 near Nairobi, Kenya. Read more about this historic event and about the history, the purpose and the future of the Global Christian Forum on this website.

The Global Christian Forum Committee

 
Three – Year Plan 2009 - 2011

 

Introduction

The Limuru Global Forum of November 2007 recommended that a representative consultation be convened to reflect on the future of the Global Christian Forum, on the basis of a thorough evaluation of the process up to and including the Limuru gathering. The evaluation was carried out in the course of 2008 and the consultation took place on 8 – 11 November 2008 in New Delhi. The consultation formulated the key objectives, the anticipated activities and the operational requirements of a 3 – year programme for the period 2009 – 2011.

The key objectives are:
- to uphold the distinctive nature of the Forum
- to pursue global, regional and national/local levels of activity
- to upgrade the communication and promotional capacity of the GCF
- to establish a Friends of the Forum network
- to further define and implement plans for the operational capacity of the GCF.

At its meeting on 23 – 25 February 2009 in Helsinki, Finland, the Committee on the Global Christian Forum approved a Three – Year Plan of meetings and team visits leading up to a global Forum event scheduled for late 2011, and a Budget. This plan and budget will serve as the frame and support for achieving the key objectives and implementing the activities. Read More
