heritage of the Anglican Church, and who endeavour to make a positive, constructive
contribution at local, diocesan and national levels. EFAC (Aust) is part
of the world-wide Evangelical Fellowship in the Anglican Communion. |

The Purpose of EFAC
To maintain and promote a strong biblical witness in and through the Anglican
Church so as to advance the cause of the gospel in Australia. |
| |
The Aims of EFAC rest upon the
conviction that a strong biblical witness is
essential for the life and health of the Anglican
Communion. within the wider context of
seeking first God's kingdom and the building
up of his people.
- to promote the supreme authority of Scripture in matters of both faith and conduct throughout the Anglican Church at every level of its life and witness.
- to share with members of the Anglican Church a commitment to biblical obedience particularly in the areas of Christian discipleship, servant leadership, church renewal, and mission in the world.
- To foster fellowship and unity among evangelical Anglicans throughout Australia.
- To function as a resource group to develop and encourage biblically faithful leadership in all spheres of life.
- To provide a forum, where appropriate:
a) for taking counsel on important issues, in order, where possible to develop policies in matters of common concern, and
b) for articulating gospel distinctives in the area of faith, order,
life and mission by consultations and publications.
- To promote evangelism through the local church
and planting new congregations.
- To co-ordinate and encourage EFAC branches/groups
in provinces or dioceses of the Anglican Church of Australia.
