News from the 2016 Central Committee of the World Council of Churches

Hope in a Pilgrimage of Justice and Peace formed the integral thread for proceedings when the Central Committee of the World Council of Churches (WCC) met in Trondheim, Norway at the end of June.

The 2016 meeting took place 22-28 June, the second gathering since the Central Committee was elected at the WCC 10th Assembly in Busan, Republic of Korea in 2013.

The theme, "Pilgrimage: Discerning the Landscapes Together," reflected the final message of the 10th Assembly prompting, among others, a powerful statement for peace and justice in Israel and Palestine.
