LWF Thanked for “Prayer and Accompaniment”

World Communion of Reformed Churches Brings Greetings to LWF

STUTTGART, Germany, 22 July 2010 – The Lutheran World Federation (LWF) serves as an example of communion, said Rev. Dr Setri Nyomi to the LWF’s Eleventh Assembly yesterday. Speaking on behalf of the World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC), he said, “Thank you for praying along with us and accompanying us on our journey.”

Nyomi was referring to the merger of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches and the Reformed Ecumenical Council which took place in June this year. “We are thankful for the presence of an LWF delegation,” said Nyomi, “and for your encouragement along the way.”

Nyomi affirmed a feeling of closeness between the WCRC and the LWF and a commitment, “to look for ways of deepening the relationship” between the two global organizations.

The WCRC brings together 80 million Reformed Christians worldwide.
