In this respect the ICCEC exists as a "convergence of streams" — a unifier of the liturgical/sacramental, evangelical, and charismatic tributaries of the Church Universal, which flow into the one river, whose streams make glad the city of God, the Holy Place where the Most High dwells" (Psalm 46:4).
