On July 7, 2014, Rev. Dr. Roger Gaikwad, General Secretary of National Council of Churches in India launched the systems and processes clearing them for official use with immediate effect. He expressed his wish for these tools to be a channel of blessing, healing, hope and restoration to the people in the online community who, despite virtual identities, are real people contending with real situations in the real world. He also noted that the NCCI has to keep step with modern technology to continue being relevant to changing situations and emerging needs of people. Various tools of Online Communication and networking will be used by NCCI Secretaries to ensure smoother and faster flow of communications and network functions.

With the focus on grassroots ecumenism, it is hoped that the tools in use now will create spaces and pathways not only for connections, but for real communication across regions and various barriers rendered possible by the offerings of internet technology.
