Zusammenfassung: | This essay first describes the work of the World Council of Churches' Worship Committee leading up to the Eighth WCC Assembly in Harare (1998), at which the eucharist was eliminated from the official program. It then reviews the development of the Guidelines for Ecumenical Prayer prepared by the Special Commission for Orthodox Participation in the WCC, which were subsequently adopted by the WCC Central Committee. In the final section, the essay discusses the limitations of an ecclesiology based primarily on the eucharist and calls for a return to a baptismal ecclesiology as a way to allow Christians to recognize as churches even those with whom eucharistic sharing is not (yet) possible. |
