Mission Statement

      The New Jersey Council of Churches, comprised of member denominations, seeks ways to do together what we are not able to do separately.  This includes recognition of member denomination programs of outreach and ministry and assisting in identification of areas of commonality in theological traditions which might provide a foundation for shared life and witness.  The specific mission of the Council is to work with its denominational members in order to engage society and its culture through ministries of compassion and justice.  Based on areas of commonality and discerned social needs, the Council may suggest specific information to be distributed through member denominations and/or action to be taken by member denominations.  The Council, by vote of the Board or the Steering Committee, may address concerns which are consistent with its purpose but not as an obligation on individual member denominations.
