Threats and Challenges of Globalisation - Churches in Europe and Latin America in dialogue
Published jointly with the Latin American Council of Churches - CLAI
While sharing agreement on a number of concerns, there are significant differences in reflecting impacts of globalisation between churches from Europe and Latin America. The document is the result of a dialogue which contributed to trustbuilding and overcoming of differencies in a number of discussed themes and is a joint contribution to a wider ecumenical debate.
The document invites the churches of CEC and CLAI to reflect the outcomes of the dialogue. The text underlines: ‘CSC/CEC and CLAI welcome with pleasure the involvement from the churches, church-related organisations and individuals in both continents, as well as from the larger ecumenical family. We hope to receive their comments and reactions to this text and in this way nurture the next stages of our joint commitment.’
The document is an expression of hope that our joint efforts and work together across the continents can contribute to the churches’ witness amidst the burning issues of the societies in which we all live.
