The Church of North India is part of the One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, the Body of Christ, which He is building up out of persons of all generations and races. The Church of North India is what it is as a Church by reason of what it has received from God in Christ through bringing together into one life the several traditions of the Churches that have united to constitute it. This heritage is the fruit of the continuous working of God’s Spirit in His Church in all ages from Apostolic times through the Reformation and down to our own day.
