Purpose of Ecumenical Work in Finland
The goal of ecumenical work is to bring Christians into mutual fellowship towards the visible unity of the Church. According to the Bible Christian unity is both a gift and a calling.
The work towards Christian unity is based on the prayer of Jesus Christ:
My prayer is -- that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.
(John 17:21, NIV)
