In Canadian Prairies Dialogue melts 'ecumenical winter'

Are we in an “ecumenical winter” where little is happening to achieve Christian unity?

But Bolen, who gave extensive examples of these efforts, said local churches must do more to foster these good developments.

“The local ecumenical scene needs to be nourished by the international dialogue,” he told about 60 people from several Edmonton Christian churches.

    The ECUSA/TC/GCC/EO-PAC and the ACCANADA are doing all in their power to destroy the bases for any ecumenism in their repudiation of millenia of Christian teaching, and promulgation of heresy, destruction of the Anglican Communion, and ignoring the calls to repentance and correction frm Rome/Constantinople/Geneva/Azusa Street et alia … and this causes such an observation as to why?

    Must be a perceptual thingy………….
