 | | CUIC is made up of nine member church bodies: the African Methodist Episcopal Church, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, The Episcopal Church, the International Council of Community Churches, the Presbyterian Church (USA), the United Church of Christ, and the United Methodist Church. |  | | The ELCA is, however, in full communion with both the Presbyterian Church (USA) and the United Church of Christ. |  | | Churches Uniting in Christ (CUIC), known until its rebirth in 2002 as Consultation on Church Union (COCU), is a national movement that seeks to live more intentionally together in Christian unity. |

 | | However, the Presbyterian Church USA was unwilling to implement some of the changes to its internal rules that this model would require, and the Episcopal Church did not feel able to participate at the time. |  | | CUIC is not a merger, but rather an intercommunion agreement whereby each member recognizes the others as part of the true church, and recognizes its rites (baptism, communion) as valid. |  | | The original proposal for CUIC also had a full recognition of each other's ministers, but the Episcopal Church's insistence on the historic episcopate, which conflicts with the method of administration in some other member churches (especially in the Presbyterian Church USA), has meant that this part of the CUIC proposal has been put on hold. |

| | Churches of Christ Uniting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Churches of Christ Uniting was a proposed name for a body growing out of the Consultation on Church Union which began in 1962 among ten predominantly "mainline" U.S. Protestant denominations. |  | | Opposition within the component denominations, particularly the United Presbyterian Church, caused any plan for full merger to be put on hold, and a new name, seemingly implying that "uniting" is a presently-ongoing but perhaps long-term goal, was adopted, Churches Uniting in Christ. |  | | Groups within the Consultation began closer contacts, and in some instances full communion, with each other, and the idea to call the group that was hoped to be formed in the long term Church of Christ United was proposed, with the interim name while the process was ongoing to be Church of Christ Uniting. |

In other words, Churches Uniting in Christ embodies a vision for Christian unity with justice. |  | | It starts with the participating churches mutually recognizing one another as authentic expressions of the one Church of Jesus Christ according to the apostolic tradition of faith expressed in the Apostles and Nicene Creeds that includes entry into the one Church of Jesus Christ through Baptism. |
