Continued P.5 Serving the District After years of talk and little apparent action, The Anticipating confusion over the designation given JOINT PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF CANADA AND THE UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA (Toronto) Anglican and United Churches have produced a docu ment which forecasts "one or ganizational structure" for the two Communions . The document entitled: "The Principles of Union Between The Anglican Church of Canada and The United Church of Canada," is the work of two Com- mittees of Ten of the parent or ganizations, and will be presented to the General Synod of the Anglican: Church which meets in Vancouver in August of this year, and the General Council of th e United Church which will meet in Waterloo, Ontario, in September of 1966. The report begins by announcing that the two Com- mittees have reached "full and unanimous agreement" on the principles of faith and order, and on the principles that should govern union. It points out that if the two churches are agreed in principle, there is nothing to prevent them from coming to- gether in fact. The report concludes with a recom- mendation that "the two church es enter into a golemn and formal commitment to proceed imme- diately to prepare pgris and detailed plans for organizational union. Spokesmen for the two churches Hire hailed the report as a major break-through in the long struggle to bring the two communions together. They spoke with pride and gratification about the thoroughness of the report and the precise phraseology used in spelling out the principles upon which such a plan must be built. They pointed to the following paragraph as one of the main keys to the breakthrough that has been achieved. "We are united in our intention to bring into being, not a merger of two existing eccleias- tical bodies, but rather a new embodiment of the One Church of God. It is-our intention not to create a new church, but rather to seek a new visible expression in structure, in worship, in life and witness, for the Oneness of the Church which already exists." United Church by the Committee to the new organization (united church with a small 'u' in the first word) spokesmen explained that this was the b est and simplest term the Committee could think of without pre-judging the name of the new Church. If this report is ac- cep ted the next step will be to appoint a Joint Commission which will settle this and many other questions. Copies of the report have already been mailed to all clergy of both Churches. (Cont'd P .5
