A background paper for the “International Consultation on Rediscovering Community” at Notre Dame, Indiana in the USA in December, 1991 compiled over 3,500 different names, titles, terms and expressions for Small Christian Communities (SCCs)/Basic Christian Communities (BCCs) worldwide. New research carried out in 2015 brought the total to over 5,000 names and terms to express the rich diversity of this new way of being/becoming church and its importance worldwide. While some may rightfully argue that the many names can bring confusion, many specialists say that the many names attest to the vitality and dynamism of SCCs in different parts of the world.
