The Anglican Communion and the Methodist Church say they must address the areas that continue to divide. Representatives of the two churches were in Cape Town, South Africa, this week for the Third Annual Meeting of the Anglican-Methodist International Commission for Unity in Mission. The Commission was set up in 2007 to advance the full visible communion of Anglicans and Methodists at every level. A communiqué issued at the end of the meeting said there was a ‘much clearer awareness of the need for the Commission to identify and begin to tackle some of the issues that are at the heart of our present denominational divisions’. The Commission went on to acknowledge the bilateral conversations taking place between the two communions particularly in the UK, Ireland, US and New Zealand.

Pray: for the unity of God’s church in all its diversity. (Jn.17:23)
