Ecumenical and Interreligious

Updates from the Anglican-Roman Catholic USA Dialogue

Ecumenical and Inter-religious Relations

The most recent meeting of the Anglican-Roman Catholic USA (ARC-USA) dialogue was a productive time that featured collaborative revision of a joint statement on reconciliation. Reconciliation is at the heart of the common work of The Episcopal Church and the Roman Catholic Church. Even when our two churches are unable to live in full, visible communion (to borrow a phrase from the ecumenical movement), we believe that continuing to labor for reconciliation serves as a gospel witness to the world. Our forthcoming document will seek to speak to our needs for reconciliation in the spheres of the ecumenical, interreligious, political, racial, and ecological. The hope of all members of this dialogue has been that our common words will be a source of inspiration for those who call these churches home so that they might find common cause in the work of God’s reconciling love.
