<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Meeting 
from 17 to 24 June, the newly reconstituted Commission on Faith and Order of the  </span><span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI', sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">World Council of Churches (WCC) has begun to define its principal trajectories 
for ecumenical study and common activity from 2015 until the next WCC Assembly 
in 2020.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Gathered 
at Caraiman Monastery in Romania, the 49-member commission determined to focus 
its upcoming work in the areas of examining theological foundations of the WCC 
programme emphasis “the pilgrimage of justice and peace”, continuing work on 
dialogue and the discovery of common ground among churches regarding the 
Christian doctrine of the Church, and coordinate consultations and seminars on 
how churches engage in processes of “moral discernment” when deciding policies 
leading to action on such topics as climate change, slavery, apartheid, human 
sexuality and matters of life and death.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
commission will also encourage such long-term activities as collaboration with 
the Pontifical Council for Christian Unity of the Roman Catholic Church 
facilitating, for example, the annual preparation of resources for the Week of 
Prayer for Christian Unity, and joining other offices in the WCC and partner 
agencies in activities related to inter-religious dialogue and cooperation. It 
works, too, with the Ecumenical Disabilities Network and the Ecumenical Network 
of Indigenous Peoples.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
commission’s moderator is the British theologian Rev. Dr Susan Durber of the 
United Reformed Church in the United Kingdom. In remarks in the closing session 
of their meeting, she told the commissioners that “I feel that a new wind is 
blowing.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">She 
reminded commissioners and staff, “The Church is God’s creation, not ours”, 
arguing that anxiety for religious institutions is wasted: “Overcoming poverty – 
this is where the real crisis is!”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Referring 
to the economic and cultural globalization of the early 21st century, Durber 
posed the question: “What does Christian unity bring to a world that tries to 
impose another kind of unity?” And she offered this word of assurance: “We are 
those who can afford not to be anxious, because Christ has already done what we 
need to be done.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Pilgrimage 
in a pluralistic world</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">A 
major task at the meeting was the establishment of working groups to oversee the 
commission’s chosen projects. While precise details will be designed by these 
groups in later meetings, a broad picture emerged of Faith and Order’s concerns 
in the latter half of this decade.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
working group that focuses on issues surrounding “the pilgrimage of justice and 
peace” hopes to sponsor discourse on the theological foundations of pilgrimage. 
It will ask how the concept and practice of pilgrimage may be lived out in a 
multi-religious, multi-cultural and secular age, not least among minority and 
oppressed churches. Another theme to be engaged was described as “Christian 
responsibility and hope in a broken world”. The environmental crisis may be 
addressed under this rubric, alongside justice and peace.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
Church</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">In 
Christian theology, study of the doctrine of the Church is termed 
“ecclesiology”. A series of Faith and Order documents have addressed aspects of 
ecclesiology and ecumenical dialogue, including the publications Baptism, 
Eucharist and Ministry; The Nature and Purpose of the Church; Nature and Mission 
of the Church; and The Church: Towards a Common Vision. Responses continue to be 
received in regard to questions posed by the latter document, and these will be 
analyzed along with the history of challenges and accords  arising from earlier 
publications. Continuing dialogue among widely diverse churches also will 
continue.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Moral 
discernment and the sources of Christian social ethics</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Consultations 
will be organized on how particular churches arrive at moral decisions, 
reviewing historical instances of change in positions on moral issues. Examples 
suggested include churches’ policies on slavery, apartheid, abortion, suicide, 
euthanasia and the ordination of women to offices of ministry.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Within 
the coming week, Faith and Order staff in Geneva will submit budget proposals 
for the 2016 fiscal year. Recommended projects will proceed based on resources 
available from the WCC and interested partners.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">An 
ecumenical heritage</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
Faith and Order movement among Christian churches built during the early years 
of the 20th century and was organized on a global scale through its first 
international conference at Lausanne, Switzerland in 1927. There, delegates from 
various Christian churches proclaimed that “God wills unity”, and “however we 
may justify the beginnings of disunion, we lament its continuance.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The 
World Council of Churches came into being following the Second World War largely 
through a merger between the theologically oriented Faith and Order movement and 
the Life and Work movement which showed primary concern for practical means by 
which churches could act together on social issues and oppose 
injustice.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: 'Segoe UI','sans-serif'; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Initially 
made up of Orthodox, Anglican and Protestant churches, Faith and Order has 
continued its work as a commission of the WCC and now includes churches from 
outside the formal membership of the World Council of Churches. The Roman 
Catholic Church became a full participant following the Second Vatican Council 
of the 1960s, and the Assemblies of God is a commission member.</span></div>
