The Launching of the “Fellowship
Community”:
There will be a significant institutional
restructuring of the evangelical voice within the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
The "Fellowship of Presbyterians" and "Presbyterians for Renewal" are merging their
organizations to form the "Fellowship
Community". The Fellowship of Presbyterians was a gathering of evangelical
Presbyterians out of which the new ECO denomination emerged. The new Fellowship
Community will not have any formal connection with ECO.
This note is copied from the
Presbyterians for Renewal website:
It is with great joy and anticipation that we celebrate the
launch of a new movement as the Fellowship of Presbyterians and Presbyterians
for Renewal (PFR) join together to nurture and connect gospel-centered PC(USA)
congregations and expand relationships with our counterparts in other mainline
traditions.
The Fellowship Community is not an
“association” to join. We are building a new community around Christ-centered
mission, accountability, theological integrity, and cultural engagement. We are
following the Holy Spirit’s leading into a new season of mission and ministry,
shaping an evangelical witness and actively participating in God’s mission in
the context of our 21st century
church and culture.
