One Church, indivisible: Aimee's blog from Crete

Once every five years or so, a group of about 120 men and women, pastors, laypersons, academics, and church leaders get together to talk about the issues that still divide the churches. It's called the Faith and Order Plenary Commission, and its next meeting will take place at the Orthodox Academy of Crete, Greece, 7-13 October 2009.oac

This year, I've been invited to go. 

And I'm writing a blog.

Closing thoughts

Saturday, Oct. 17, 2009

I'm back in the Denver airport where I spent my first layover on this adventure, and now my last.

We didn't fully accomplish Christian unity in Crete, or in Chicago. But I will say that each time I meet with these wonderful folks, I am convinced that we need each other. We cannot be not whole without each other, and our dividedness keeps us broken.

Come Holy Spirit!

I look forward to carrying on these conversations in person - hello again, Santa Clara!
