Worship Key Element in WCC Assembly in Australia.
While they were often divided on the issues debated in plenary sessions, participants in the World Council of Churches Assembly
in Australia joined in daily worship in a huge tent on the grounds of Australian National University. The Rev. Jacqueline Grant
of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the U.S. (center) preached at a special ecumenical Lima Liturgy the first Sunday of
the Assembly on the theme, "Ain't Gonna Study War No More." (Episcopal News Service photo by James Solheim)
