Jordan Partner Churches and Organizations

The Middle East Council of Churches (MECC)

The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has been a strong partner and supporter of the work of the MECC since its inception in 1974. The Council includes all four families of churches in the Middle East, i.e., the Eastern Orthodox churches, the Oriental (non-Calcedonian) Orthodox churches, the Catholic churches (Latin and Oriental Rites), and the Evangelical churches (Reformed, Episcopal, Lutheran and Congregational). It works on issues of church unity, Christian presence in the Middle East, justice, peacemaking and reconciliation, dialogue with non-Christian neighbors, education, nurture and renewal, participation of youth, women and children, life and service, and Palestinian refugees and other displaced persons.
