The histories of the Church of England and the Methodist Church
have been linked together for 250 years. In the 1970s, a proposal
for unity failed narrowly. Now relationships between Methodists and
Anglicans are stronger than ever, locally, regionally and
nationally. Both are committed to the search for unity. What holds
them apart? This official report of the Formal Conversations that
began in 1999 sets out the common ground that has been
rediscovered. It shows the strength of theological agreement, but
also points out significant differences that require further work.
Conscious of both the opportunities and the unresolved issues, the
two churches asked the Conversations to draw up an agreement that
would enable them to take a significant step towards future unity.
The talks gave priority to mission and evangelism and paid special
attention to diversity. This report proposes a national covenant,
made up of mutual acknowledgement and mutual commitment. It should
consolidate at the national level the many local and regional
covenants that already exist and so prepare the ground for the next
vital stage on the road to unity.
