From Christian Post-The United Methodist Church and The Episcopal Church are one step closer to entering into an agreement in which they will be in full communion with each other.
At a multiday meeting held last week, the UMC Council of Bishops voted to approve the preparation of legislation to carry out the full communion proposal, titled "A Gift to the World: Co-Laborers for the Healing of Brokenness."
"In the fractured human community there is a great need for the realization of the unity among the followers of Christ Jesus," stated the Preamble.
"This proposal for full communion between The Episcopal Church and The United Methodist Church is an effort to bring our churches into closer partnership in the mission and witness to the love of God and thus labor together for the healing of divisions among Christians and for the well-being of all."
