- Title
The World Council of Churches at 70.
- Abstract
Hundreds of people gathered from across the world on 23 August 2018 for an ecumenical prayer service at the Nieuwe Kerk, a 15th‐century church in Amsterdam, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the World Council of Churches (WCC) at the very spot in which the organization was founded in 1948. Under the theme "Walking, Praying and Working Together," the service featured special music, greetings from the Council of Churches in the Netherlands, and a procession of pilgrims from all over the world. Marking the 70th anniversary of the WCC, The Ecumenical Review is documenting the sermon at the 70th anniversary service given by the WCC general secretary, the Rev. Dr Olav Fykse Tveit, and the reflections offered by the moderator of the central committee, Dr Agnes Abuom.
