What does meaningful Christian Church collaboration look like in the modern world?
An Ecumenical Christian Youth Summit was held in 2018 in Brisbane, Queensland. The NCCA granted funds to the Queensland Churches’ young adult leaders to re-produce resources from the Summit that can be accessible to all State and Territory Councils and local groups of churches.
