Work and pray together now, despite differences, Pope urges ecumenical community

Catholic World News - October 28, 2014

In a meeting with the ecumenical Ark Community, Pope Francis said that Christians should work and pray together, not waiting for theologians to settle all questions of doctrine.
“We are sinning against Christ’s will because we continue to focus on our differences,” the Pope said. “But our shared baptisms is more important than our differences.”
The Ark Community was founded by Tony Palmer, the Evangelical leader and friend of Pope Francis who died suddenly in an automobile accident last year. The Pontiff met with members of the community on October 10; a recording of his remarks has now been released by the Ark Community.
The Pope spoke to the group about the common witness of Christians under persecution, especially in the Middle East and in Africa today. Many have died “because they believe in Jesus Christ,” the Pontiff said, and all Christians, regardless of denomination, should honor their memory and support those still suffering under persecution.
