New Euro-Church Body proposed by Patriarch
From ENI
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomeos I, a spiritual leader who represents Eastern Orthodox Christianity, has called for the creation of a churches' umbrella body in Europe to include Roman Catholics alongside Anglicans, Orthodox and Protestants.
"It is only by engaging in dialogue and by closely cooperating that the churches will prove capable of proclaiming the Gospel of Christ to the world in a convincing and effective way," the Orthodox leader said in a 19 July address in Lyon, France to mark the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Conference of European Churches.
CEC now has about 120 member churches, principally Anglican, Orthodox and Protestant, but Bartholomeos said that Europe needs a grouping that includes the Catholic Church.
Will the body allow several Anglican groups to be members?

It is absolutely incredible how this concept of dialogue has infested minds and souls, included Catholics (and Catholic clergy, and even catholic encyclicals...).
We are not to engage in the proclamation, we are not supposed to die for the Truth any more. We are not even suppose to consider that we preach contradiction and scandal withe the Cross of Our Lord. Oh, and God forbid, we are not to upset anyone in this world!
No, no more Truth. Now, dialogue, no matter among who or for what. "Unity" at any cost.
Well... stop!! let me get off. I have no part with this one world religion, no matter if comes from Mr. bartholo or whoever.
Silly people at ENI. Anglicans ARE Protestants.
