Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in 1976
The 70th annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity runs January 18 to 25 1976 with the theme this hope does not disappoint us Co sponsored by the National Council of Churches Faith and Order and Graymoor Ecumenical Institute and the National Catholic Bishops Conference Bishops Committee for Ecumenical Affairs. Optimism mixes with concern as internal church disputes persist across Lutheran Episcopal Presbyterian Catholic and Baptist denominations. Dialogues expand though disagreements remain and ecumenism gains acceptance in American religious life ahead of further dialogues in 1977.
