Histoire<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

FORMED in 1961 by key Pacific church figures, the Pacific Conference of Churches was a regional response to a changing world and independence. Church Leaders from Dutch Papua in the West to Samoa in the East gathered to form this regional ecumenical organisation out of former mission churches. The inaugural PCC Assembly was held at Lifou in Kanaky (New Caledonia) in 1966. The PCC works closely with the Pasifika Communities University (formerly known as the Pacific Theological College) which opened in 1966 and the South Pacific Association of Theological Schools, founded in 1969.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Adh\u00e9sion<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

FROM the Gereja Kristen Injili di Tannah Papua (Evangelical Christian Church of Papua) in the West to the Etaretia Porotetani Maohi (Maohi Protestant Church) in the East, the PCC has 35 member churches and 10 councils of churches in 18 countries and territories across the region. Our members come from a wide section of Christian faith confessions.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Notre gouvernance<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

EVERY four years the heads of the PCC\u2019s member organisations meet to mandate the secretariat\u2019s work during a General Assembly. The General Assembly appoints the Moderator, Deputy Moderator, an executive committee (which must include women and young people) and elects the General Secretary. The Executive Committee meets each year and processes the work of the Finance and Business Committee which meets once a quarter. This is our governance structure. The annual Pacific Church Leaders Meeting falls outside of the PCC Constitution but allows an additional advisory and oversight layer to guide the work of the Secretariat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Investissements<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

IN their wisdom, the leaders of the PCC have, over the years, invested in property around Suva. The PCC owns four residential, five commercial properties and two vacant blocks of land. These 11 properties are unencumbered and generate revenue for the PCC. In 2021, the PCC bought 50 acres of farmland on the east coast of Fiji\u2019s main island, Viti Levu. This real estate venture was developed to increase organisational self-sufficiency and decrease reliance on external funders.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Bailleurs de fonds et partenaires<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

SANS la g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9 des bailleurs de fonds et des partenaires, le travail du PCC ne serait pas possible. Nos bailleurs de fonds actuels sont Bread for the World, Global Ministries, KAIROS, l'\u00c9glise m\u00e9thodiste de Grande-Bretagne, l'UNICEF et ONU Femmes. Nous avons un certain nombre de partenariats avec Uniting World et le Conseil \u0153cum\u00e9nique des \u00c9glises.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
