The word ECU- MENISM finds its roots in the Greek word: Oikoumene, meaning the whole earth. The hope is that all Christian churches over the whole world will become one around the Lord Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world. Jesus prayed: ‘“That all be one as you, Father, in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us.” The impetus for this Ecumenical movement was renewed with the Second Vatican Council (1963-65) by Pope John XXIII. From then on a dialogue started between the Catholic Church and other major denominations: the Orthodox, the Anglicans and the Lutherans. As one of them explains: “Ecumenical dialogue is never a matter of trying to convert others to our viewpoints, nor of trying to unite totally opposite positions. In true dialogue we refrain from imposing on any participant the moulds, stereotypes, judgments which we have already developed and we con- centrate on those things which unite, draw together, reconcile and bring peace. It follows the Lutheran ideal, often quoted by Pope Paul VI: “a church always being renewed”. That is what brought some startling changes of attitude. Through images of the mass media we recall the embrace of Paul VI and Patriarch Athenagoras of Istanbul, or the same Pope falling on his knees to kiss the feet of Orthodox . Metropolitan Meliton as they prayed together in the Sistine Chapel. We can only imagine the emotions of John Paul I praying at the side of Metropolitan Nikodin of Leningrad who would die minutes later in his arms. Recently Bishop James Crumley Jr., President of the Lutheran Church of America, discussed Roman Catholic—Lutheran relations and pros- pects of future unity with Pope John Paul Il ina private audience. That was his fourth meeting with the pope. The dialogue with the World Council of Churches has also been fruitful in its Faith and Order Commission. After decades of study and dialogue theologians of all churches concluded with their “Lima Document” in January, 1982, in which they recognise their common belief in Baptism, Eucharist and Ministry. The dialogue which has made the most pro- gress so far in study and in practise is the one between the Anglican Catholic and the Roman Catholic churches. The first commission, called ARCIC, was formed soon after the Vatican Council in the late sixties, and has already produced documents of common faith on Baptism, the Eucharist, ~ Ministry and Authority as service. Reactions on both sides have been very favorable. In a Final Report all respondents to a questionnaire agreed that major break-throughs were achieved be- tween the two churches. The assessment and agreement is expected to be concluded by about 1988. In the meantime, when Pope John Paul II met with Archbishop Runcie at Canterbury in May, 1982, they signed a declaration to start a second commission called ARCIC II. Its agenda includes 1) an elimination of the outstanding differences which still separate the churches; 2) a study of all that still hinders a mutual recog- nition of ministries (priesthood); and 3) pro- posals regarding the practical steps necessary for restoring full communion. This condensed article summarizes the work that is going on at the higher levels of the church- es. At the grassroot level of parish, family and rel- igious life we must also prepare the ground for unity. This is happening by trying to deepen our communion with God in Christ and with one another. Catholic Ladies Group The Catholic Ladies Group held its first meeting on Jan- uary 15, 1985 at the Parish Hall. Ten ladies of the Parish attended. On the agenda for this first meeting was planning the Pot- Luck luncheon on February 10 for the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes.We also planned a talk and discussion on , “Drugs-Uses and Abuses” for the next meeting to be held on February 11, at 7:30 p.m. in the Parish Hall.

Bishop Ferris will visit Cassiar February 2 for a service and meeting to discuss the applications for a new rector. Hopefully by the next issue we will know who and when a new rector will be here. In the meantime, the lay readers are con- ducting services. * NORTHERN SKETCHES * OIL PAINTINGS % BURL CLOCKS %* JADE CLOCKS * IMPORTED ROCK CLOCKS “*& JADE CARVINGS | Ri ses ia) MEA ACAI Ye oI Ie CIEE IE ACI NK ACCC IE EACIC AC IK Barrebdbuecdcboabbesbh nenieeeaobeenkks = Library News A new selection of books, both fiction and non-fic- tion, are now starting to trickle into the library, with more on order already.
