WCC Faith and Order Plenary Commission meeting 
Crete, Greece, Switzerland, 7-14 October 2009

Faith and Order is the historical branch of the World Council of Churches dealing with theological aspects of the churches search for visible unity. With a membership wider than that of the WCC, the commission includes the Roman Catholic Church as a full member, as well as Pentecostal and Evangelical churches. The plenary commission meets once between WCC assemblies, which take place every seven or eight years.

During the Crete meeting, there will be a series of press conferences and briefings with ecumenical personalities covering current ecumenical themes.
