All NCC member organizations subscribe to the NCC's statement of faith, which forms the preamble to the NCC's charter:
"The National Council of Churches is a community of Christian communions, which, in response to the gospel as revealed in the Scriptures, confess Jesus Christ, the incarnate Word of God, as Savior and Lord. These communions covenant with one another to manifest ever more fully the unity of the Church. Relying upon the transforming power of the Holy Spirit, the communions come together as the Council in common mission, serving in all creation to the glory of God."

Welcome to the National Society of Saints and Sinners website. We are adding new information daily. Please check back with us often, as we enlarge our list of approved Saints. Our first Council meeting on 14 April 2011, was a tremendous success. Several items of import to our members were discussed and resolved. We extend a heartfelt thank you to our members for helping us make the Society an even greater pleasure to join.
I believe in God the Father, who hath made me, and all the world.
And in His only Son, Jesus Christ, who hath redeemed me, and all mankind.
And in the Holy Spirit, who sanctifies me, and all the Elect people of God.
