"Söderblom urged his Christian brothers and sisters not to wait for consensus on every point of theology, but to unite in a “practical Christianity”, to serve the world together in the pursuit of peace, justice and human dignity. Although the Catholic Church was not represented at that first meeting, I can state, with humility and joy, that we stand with you today as fellow disciples of Christ, recognising that what unites us is much more than what divide us."
