Summary: | This paper is a personal response to ecumenical life in the UK today by one who has lived ecumenically for a lifetime. It indicates the dynamism of the post-war ecumenical activity and then contrasts it, with some reference to significant events, to contemporary trends such as 'post-denominationalism' and 'neo-denominationalism'. The challenge is to learn from the ecumenically pioneering efforts over the years and to discover afresh 'the pain of our divisions' in seeking the 'unity Christ wills'. |
