The Catholic Church and the Ecumenical Movement: Present Experience and Future Prospects

Abstract

Taking the 9^th Assembly of the World Council of Churches as his starting point, Archbishop Conti shares with us something of his own ecumenical journey and in doing so sets out some of the issues which face the Roman Catholic church in its relations with other churches in Scotland and beyond. His paper ends with a useful summary of what he sees as the main achievements of the Porto Alegre Assembly.
