“Great days lie behind us. In Debrecen, in Calvinist Rome, theologians from all over Europe came together to discuss the consequences, realisations, and possibilities of the Leuenberg Agreement. The Leuenberg Agreement is not just any ecumenical dialogue result: no: it creates a new reality: church communion. Churches can remain independent and understand themselves as part of the one Church of Jesus Christ. With what happened on Leuenberg fifty years ago in these days of March, centuries-old inner-Protestant struggles were overcome, and church communion was created. So, it is only right that we celebrate this communion not only in theological reflection but also in the common celebration of worship. For therein beats the heart of our communion: that we are united at the table of the Lord.”
