Das Thema Gewalt im Namen von Religion und die Notwendigkeit einer Reaktion darauf war omnipräsent auf der Tagung des 25-köpfigen ÖRK-Exekutivausschusses im November.
Violence in the name of religion echoed in the distance, demanding a response, through the November 2015 meeting of the 25-member Executive Committee of the WCC in Bogis-Bossey and nearby Geneva, Switzerland as it planned the work of the Council in the coming years.
The WCC Executive Committee, currently meeting in Switzerland, is working to translate the mandate of the WCC 10th Assembly into strategic plans and visible actions, focusing on the churches’ efforts toward a “pilgrimage for justice and peace”.
