The United Evangelistic Council is an evangelical not for profit organisation that exists to encourage and sponsor the promotion of the Christian gospel in Sydney and NSW. The Council holds the left-over funds from the 1959 Billy Graham Crusades, and acts as a catalyst to increase and enhance the joint evangelistic efforts of evangelical churches and organisations. Examples of UEC-sponsored projec
ts and events over the last 50 years include:
• Leighton Ford mission at the Sydney Entertainment Centre in 1986
• Bicentennial Bible distribution to homes throughout Australia in 1988
• Conferences on evangelism and church planting in the 1990s and 2000s
• Multi-church missions in St George and Wollongong (2011, 2014)
The UEC welcomes applications from individuals, churches and organisations for the financial support of evangelistic projects and events. Proposed projects may take a number of forms including large-scale evangelistic events, conferences, training courses, or publishing projects. All projects, however, must be evangelical in conviction, evangelistic in focus, interdenominational in scope, and demonstrably limited by lack of available funds.
