Effective Living Centre The ELC empowers people to engage with and contribute to life more effectively. It is available to people of any social, political and religious stance.

The Effective Living Centre is a not for profit organisation run primarily by an Office Coordinator and volunteers. It provides facilities and programs for people who want to share, broaden and develop their own vision and passion for life. Programs evolve and change according to community needs or demand but can be grouped under the following headings

-social issues (which holds events to discuss current and topical issues concerning equity and justice)

-sacred & creative (provides opportunities to discover and express the sacred aspects of life in a variety of ways)

-Progressive Christianity Network- PCNet (which holds events to explore and nurture Christian faith and spirituality in modern times.) All our programs and events are offered in a conscious spirit of hospitality, inclusion and respect. The Effective Living Centre is a community engagement and development project of Christ Church Uniting, Wayville, and is a progressive and evolutionary resource centre. Since its beginning in 1998, the Centre has built up a reliable and admired infrastructure. We are able to host courses and seminars – small or large – and to provide excellent facilities and administration services for other community organisations. Cooperative initiatives are seen by the ELC as a way of participating in personal and community development with others. Our primary vision is to contribute positively to the whole community. It is open and available to people of any social, political or religious belief who share our values of :

Respect
Compassion
Inclusion
Fairness
Integrity
Community
