UCJCI Update


UCJCI Update December 5, 2018 Thursday Dec 06, 2018
	Once again, it’s Union Sunday. Once again, we light the Union Candle and briefly recall that between 1965 and 1992 three denominations covenanted to journey together as one. We may also briefly recognise that our history did not begin in 1965, but that we have over 200 years of faithful witness to our Saviour, whose advent we now commemorate, and whose coming as God with us – Immanuel – signalled the single most important event in human history.
