The Hong Kong Christian Council (Also known as HKCC; Chinese: 香港基督教協進會) is a Protestant Christian ecumenical organization founded in Hong Kong in 1954. It is a member of the World Council of Churches and the Christian Conference of Asia. The current general secretary is Rev Dr Lo Lung-kwong, the previous Director of the Divinity School of Chung Chi College, Chinese University of Hong Kong, effective from 1 July 2018.

Although not all Protestant churches in Hong Kong are members of the Christian Council, the HKCC assists to select the election committee of the Chief Executive of Hong Kong in the Protestant sector.

Notable leaders include Rev. Kwok Nai-wang, a senior pastor of the Hong Kong Council of the Church of Christ in China.

The Hong Kong Christian Service is the service arm of the Hong Kong Christian Council. All Executive Committee members of the Hong Kong Christian Council are members of the Hong Kong Christian Service.
