The Princeton Proposal is a landmark statement on the present
situation and future possibilities of modern ecumenism. Drafted by
sixteen theologians and ecumenists from various church traditions,
who met over a period of three years in Princeton, New Jersey, this
document seeks to steer contemporary efforts at church unity away
from social and political agendas, which are themselves divisive,
and back to the chief goal of the modern ecumenical movement -- the
visible unity of Christians worldwide, of all those who are
reconciled in one body through the cross.
Since the study group that produced this statement was
instituted and its participants were chosen by an independent
ecumenical foundation, the Center for Catholic and Evangelical
Theology, their unofficial work presents especially profound and
creative reflection on the ecumenical task. With this report the
study group members do not claim to speak "for" their churches, but
hope to speak "to" all the churches out of shared concern for the
founding ecumenical imperative that they all may be one . . . so
that the world may believe.
