Australia
The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has been working with
the Uniting Church in Australia (a part of the former Presbyterian
Church in Australia) more than 110 years. The PC(USA) works
through partner church
relationships. The Australian Presbyterians participated
in the formation of the Presbyterian Church of Korea and
continue to work with the Korean Church as partners.
The Uniting Church gives particular attention to the issues
of peace and reunification of Korea and sharing food aid
with North Korea. There have been exchange
visits between the Uniting Church and the PC(USA) over the
years, Uniting Church representatives being received at the
PC(USA) General Assembly, the Gathering of Presbyterian Women,
a youth conference, and other ecumenical events. PC(USA) women
have participated in a travel seminar in Australia. The PC(USA)
also works with Uniting Church in Australia as partners in
Vanuatu and other Pacific island countries. |
