• Church of England
  • General Synod of the Church of England
    • Council for Christian Unity (CCU, 1991-)
      • Church of England Faith & Order Advisory Group

The Council’s predecessor functions were once handled under the broader Board for Mission and Unity (BMU). In 1991, following a restructuring by the General Synod, the BMU was divided into two distinct entities: the Board for Mission and the Council for Christian Unity.
