A letter from Athens to the Christian churches, networks and communities
For the first time, this CWME conference has taken place in a predominantly Orthodox context. Young people, though far fewer than planned, have played an important part. For the first time the meeting included a significant number of fully participating delegates from non WCC member churches, that is the Roman Catholic Church and some Pentecostal and Evangelical churches and networks.
The WCC is a fellowship of churches, now 349 in more than 110 countries in all continents from virtually all christian traditions
