World Council of Churches - Unity with Rome
[World Council
of Churches - Unity with Rome
Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries]
"In an audience with Pope Francis in
the Vatican, the World Council of
Churches (WCC) general secretary Dr
Olav Fykse Tveit stressed the
significance of Christian unity. The
WCC has 345 member churches in more
than 110 countries. In his remarks
Tveit said, "We are all included in
the prayer of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ: 'That they all may be
one'" (John 17:21). Today we give
thanks to God that we, in the one
ecumenical movement, to which also
the Catholic Church contributes
substantially and faithfully, see
significant expressions of being
one, although not yet a full visible
unity. Mutually we recognize the one
baptism; we do confess together the
one faith in God the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit."
