Great Commission Churches (GCC)[1] is a fellowship of independent evangelical Christian churches. The Great Commission church movement began in the United States in 1970.[2] Other associated organizations include Great Commission Ministries (GCM), Great Commission Latin America (GCLA), and Great Commission Europe (GCE). The movement has grown in size and scope through its focus on church planting in the United States and abroad. GCC is a member of the National Association of Evangelicals, and one or more organizations within the movement has continuously been a part of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability since 1992.[3][4]
