The Caribbean Conference of Churches is a regional ecumenical body with 33 member churches in 34 territories across the Dutch, English, French and Spanish speaking territories of the Caribbean.[1] It was founded in 1973 and is based in Port-of-Spain, Trinidad.[2]
The CCC grew out of the work of the Christian Action for Development in the Caribbean (CADEC) and the Action for the Renewal of the Churches (ARC).[3]
Member churches and organizations are made of Christians from the Catholic, Protestant and Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (Archdiocese of the Caribbean and Latin America) denominations.[4]
