The Ebrarian State Church (Ebrarese: Ecclesia Ebrarian del Stato) is a federation of eight Amendant (Ebraricist, Christenist, Parishist, and Sanctitist) churches and denominations in Ebrary, collectively encompassing the large majority of Amendants in Ebrary. The church is a constitutionally chartered organization per the Fourth Amendment to the Ebrarian Constitution (2023), is the official state church, and supersedes the now defunct Ebrarian Christian Congress. The headquarters of the federation are located in Urtedo, Laverna Province. No one denomination makes up a majority of the membership, although the largest single church is the Ebraricist Church.
The constituent churches share full pulpit and altar fellowship, or full communion, but are independent in most theological, governance, and organizational matters. The church is governed by the State Synod, headed by the President of the Synod which rotates between constituent churches. The State President of Ebrary also serves as the Supreme Governor of the church in a largely symbolic place of leadership. The church is funded by the national church tax, with funds distributed to constituent churches based on the number of regularly attending church members.
The State Synod is also empowered with governmental authority, superseding and replacing the High Ecumenical Council after the governmental and religious reforms of State President Carlos Renaldo. The State Synod appoints ten of forty members of the Senate in the National Congress and governs the Ecumenical Courts which have jurisdiction over matters of marriage, divorce, burials, inheritance, sexual relations, and the sabbath. The Synod may also legislate on the aforementioned matters (via Synodical Edicts), but this legislation is subordinate to law passed by the National Congress.
The EES was founded as part of State President Carlos Renaldo's reforms after taking power, ostensibly to more closely unite the various Amendant denominations in Ebrary which had been cooperating for some time in roles of ecumenical governance. The result of the formation of the EES has been the consolidation of power of the Amendant establishment, the establishment of an official state church, and the increase of governmental control over the religious life of Ebrary.
