The Canadian Council of Churches and National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA, supported by the World Council of Churches, are organizing the joint project to provide a shared platform for emerging Christian leaders from Canada and the United States to engage in deep theological reflection and spiritual fellowship. NATI-RETI 2026 forms emerging ecumenical leaders through theological study, spiritual life, and cross-cultural engagement, fostering a shared commitment to justice and unity across North America. It is also part of a wider global network, with regional links to the Global Ecumenical Theological Institute (GETI) of the WCC. More than an institute, NATI-RETI is a shared space for reflection and action, where theology meets the urgent realities of justice in today’s world. Participants will explore how faith traditions can shape public life, strengthen community, and inspire meaningful change. The program is open to emerging ecumenical leaders, with priority given to those aged 21–35. Applicants from all denominations and backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Scholarships are available, helping ensure broad access and participation. Prospective applicants are invited to join an informational webinar on 6 May, 15:00 (EDT). This session offers a valuable opportunity to meet the organizing team, ask questions, and learn what to expect from the experience.
