From The Office

The Council of Jerusalem in 50AD was the first example of the Church in the New Testament coming together to listen and discern together the way forward as communities of believers. They gathered to hear about the mission work Paul and Barnabas carried, the life and behaviours of the wider church and how the church could manage the relationships between the established and developing communities growing in Antioch.
The church council listened, sought the will of God as the Holy Spirit enabled them and sent their suggestions back to the churches. James wrote:
“For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to impose on you no further burden than these essentials: that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.”
Alpine Presbytery Gatherings, Catholic Conclaves, Parish Councils, thankful to God that the Holy spirit is present in all our discernment. May we listen well.
