Lenten Ecumenism

An interesting way to present the conversation! Ecumenism is the dialogue between the Roman Catholic Church where the Pope is the Vicar of Christ and other Churches and Ecclesical Communities. Other Churches designate the Orthodox Churches - one with the same sacraments and priestly orders. Ecclesial Communities designate those who do not have orders and the Eucharist in the same way we do. Our dialogue in the States is primarily with the Ecclesial Communities - Episcopal, Lutheran, Baptist, Methodist, etc.
