Workshop on Christian Unity

February 2, 2007

So, we just finished the 2007 National Workshop on Christian Unity in Arlington, Virginia. A few facts:

1. Nearly 400 participants, mainly Roman Catholics, Episcopalians, Lutherans, Methodists, Presbyterians and others

2. Opening Worship in Washington National Cathedral; preacher, an Armenian Orthodox Archbishop

3. Scores of Workshops on ecumenical dialogue, political advocacy, Christians in the Holy Land, many more…

4. Bible study by an African American, Baptist pastor who used to lobby on Capitol Hill…and still does

5. Roman Catholic, Lutheran-Episcopal-Methodist, and Churches Uniting in Christ Eucharists

6. Closing panel of Christian members of Congress, journalists, and pastors discussing the role of faith and politics

It was an amazing experience! Why not join us next year?

April 14-17 in Chicago!

Scrolling down through a few entries below will introduce you to some of my “reflections on unity.” Thought I’d add a few categories. I look forward to the conversation!
