The Ecumenical Movement

The Ecumenical Movement is a worldwide initiative aimed at promoting unity among Christian denominations. Originating in the early 20th century, it seeks to overcome divisions by encouraging dialogue, cooperation, and mutual understanding among various churches. Key goals include sharing resources, addressing social issues together, and recognizing common beliefs while respecting differences. The movement has led to significant collaborations, such as the formation of the World Council of Churches, fostering a spirit of inclusivity and peace within Christianity, and promoting a collective Christian witness in a diverse world.
