We live in perilous times. Perhaps it has always been so. But the continued COVID-19 pandemic and its aftereffects—and now the peril of war in Europe among other ongoing conflicts at home and abroad—proclaim an urgent need.
In this context it may seem that a meeting such as a church’s General Convention has little to offer the reality of that urgency. Or even less so, the ecumenical and interreligious resolutions put forward by an increasingly small Episcopal Church.
And yet we gather not because we are powerful or large, but because we are called by Jesus to a gospel of reconciliation. A gospel of unity in all our diversity. And it is in this recognition that we do our small part in the repair of a world and a church divided.
Below you will find the resolutions which so far come under our ecumenical and interreligious rubric.
