Global Justice and Renewal Network

TLC’s Global Justice & Renewal Network is a network of TLC’ers who want to share resources, learn from one another, and participate in God's mission to bring justice and renewal to our world.

The network is built around the practice of embodying our faith through listening, learning, reflecting, relating and taking action.

“God is working in this world through the church, doing what God has been doing since the fall: working for the redemption, transformation and restoration of human beings, their relationships, and the creation that God made and in which they live”.
Bryant Myers, Walking with the Poor p.58

TLC works in partnership with a number of other organisations to bring hope into the world. The community has a long history of not only working with people in the local area but also with Indigenous communities in Australia and overseas.

"Sharing Hope is a registered charity that works with Karen refugees living along the Thai/Burma border. Many Karen have settled in our local area and TLC has formed close ties with these new locals. TLC formed a formal partnership with Sharing Hope at its inception, funding community projects such as school reconstruction and medical support. All of our projects are initiated and managed by local Karen communities"

Tearfund Australia is a Christian development, relief and advocacy organisation responding to global poverty and injustice.

We work in partnership to end poverty, challenge inequality and build sustainable communities. Following Jesus, we go where the need is greatest, acting with courage to tackle injustice so that all may experience fullness of life.

Our partnerships with local Christian agencies develop long-term holistic transformation for communities facing poverty and injustice around the world and in Australia. We do justice together as we inspire, connect and equip Australian Christians to live, act and pray for a more just and compassionate world.

Global Mission Partners

Global Mission Partners (GMP) has been investing in life-changing partnerships with churches, individuals and communities both overseas and within Australia for over 130 years. Formerly known as Australian Churches of Christ Overseas Mission Board Inc. our story began in 1891 as the Churches of Christ Foreign Missions Committee. Our strong history is evident in the quality and values of our partnerships, both internationally and in Australia. We want to see lives changed through relief and development, church partnerships, and Australian Indigenous ministry; and we’re committed to encouraging the next generation of young people to explore issues of mission and justice. We believe that mission must work with what God is doing and in partnership with local people.

We connect with, come alongside, and work together with our partners to learn, pray and act so that lives and communities are changed.

Common Grace

Common Grace is a movement of individuals, churches and communities pursuing Jesus and justice together for the flourishing of all people and all creation.

We are animated by a vision of the good that God intends for the world and we are committed to pursuing love, beauty and grace to help this be realised today.

God created this world, a common home, for all people and creation to flourish. A home where goodness and love and grace prevail. But the injustices that have pierced these lands have distanced us from God's good intention. For true justice to prevail, where all of creation can enjoy the goodness that God intends, we need people to come together in common grace. We need to pursue Jesus and justice.
