From the Pittsburgh Tribune Review
Local churches, where attendance is declining, collections are dwindling and conflicts are splintering congregations, will pause for a week to pray for Christian unity.
"In the midst of the conflicts, we have a core faith," said the Rev. Donald B. Green, executive director of Christian Associates of Southwest Pennsylvania, an ecumenical agency of 24 Christian faiths from 10 counties.
Christians around the world will celebrate the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, Jan. 18-25. The event is supported by the World Council of Churches, the Vatican and the Graymoor Ecumenical and Interreligious Institute.
