Ecumenism

Like any family, the Church has several branches. Each is different (Roman Catholic, Methodist, Anglican to name but a few) but all share a common source: Jesus Christ. In the past, as in the best of families, we’ve been divided. Ecumenism is about healing and forgiving the quarrels of the past, so we can all work together as a united witness to our shared faith in Christ. It’s about acknowledging our faith differences, but celebrating the fact all co-exist within the family of Christ.
