Pilgrimage to Busan A congregational resource

What do we mean by ecumenical Christianity? By ecumenical Christians? By ecumenical movement?

7 April 2019 Pilgrimage to Busan

One ecumenical conviction is that being Christian today entails a genuine openness toward people very different from oneself— Christians with different traditions and commitments Christians in our own area whom we’ve never really met Christians from very different contexts around the world Christians struggling with social, economic, political problems People of other faith traditions

7 April 2019 Pilgrimage to Busan

The WCC has published a new resource to engage congregations in ecumenical encounter and reflection— Pilgrimage to Busan: An Ecumenical Journey into World Christianity six units or sessions meant to encourage local and global encounter centered on chief ecumenical themes guides for participants and leaders accompany WCC to the 10th Assembly for use in Advent, Lent, adult forums, one-day retreats

Each station on the pilgrimage introduces a particular Christian context: Orthodox churches in Eastern Europe, churches in the Middle East, Christian churches in Africa lifts up a particular theme: unity, mission, peace, justice, prayer, discipleship sparks biblical and theological reflection encourages concrete practical engagements—locally and globally

Our encounters with others can deepen our faith, enlarge our solidarity, and transform our spirituality Perhaps ecumenical Christianity today means a globally oriented Christian discipleship 7 April 2019 Pilgrimage to Busan
