Excerpt from The Christian Union Quarterly, Vol. 19: Interdenominational and International; July, 1929

WE have been talking about Christian unity for a good While. Too frequently We have been up in the air with a multi tude Of generalities. The Reconciliation Pact, which appeared in the last issue of The Christian Union Quarterly, was an adventure to bring us to the earth to face the facts. Should the churches abandon their divisions for unity? Are we willing to go sympathetically into all Christian unity conferences? Do we recognize that all Christians are equals before God, so that no Christian will be denied membership in our churches, nor a place in our celebration Of the Lord's supper, nor other minis ters be denied our pulpits because they are not of the same denomination as our Own? Are we willing to carry good-will to our brethren Of other denominations as we do to our brethren Of our own denommations? These are pertinent questions and many are answering them without equivocation.

The interest in the pact has grown so that it has been decided to hold a conference in New York, at St. George's Church, November 13-15, 1929. It is proposed to have a mem bership in the conference of one thousand persons from as many denominations as will Sign the pact. On the first evening, November 13th, there Will be a reception for the members of the conference and their friends who may accompany them. It will afford an opportunity for mutual acquaintance in preparation for the conference.
