The conference, approve at a general assembly meeting in All Saints Episcopal Church, has revised bylaws which will permit membership by Ro- man Catholic congregations. Keeping With Trend The action is in keeping with a national trend in which local and state councils' of c-h:irches have adopt d new names, al- tered admission requirements or both, primarily to permit Catholic membership. "This action affords the Christian churches in San Diego a m·w opportunity to promote the message of Christ in everyday life," said the Rev. Canon Paul G. Satrang, president of the disbanded council. J:<'eelings Exprcs ·ed "Wlwl a way to celebrate Renewal Sunday I'm thrill- ed " said the Rev. John R. Po~tman~ chairman of the Ec- umenical Commission of the San Diego Catholic Diocese. Renewal Sunday, observed throughout Christendom yes- terday, was formerly known as Reformation Sunday, which commemorated the unofficial start of the Protestant Refor- mation in 1517 by Marlin Lu- ther. Election cheduled The Ecumenical Conference will be officially mslitutcd at a meeting beginning at 7:30 p.m., Jan. 25, in the First Presbyterian Church, 320 Date St., when a pre ·ident and oth- er officers will be elected. The assembly voted unani- mously to disband the council and reorganize as the Ecume!'- ical Conference. Some 225 clergy and laymen from nine denominations took part in the deliberations. Approved by Diocese Although the conference has the approval of the San Diego Roman Catholic Diocese, the diocese itself will not join as a unit. Conference membership will be by individual congre- gations only. The first three applicants for membership were La Mesa United Church of Christ, Our Lady of the Angels Catho- lic and All Saints Episcopal churches. 'No Connection' The conference will have no connection with either the Na- tional or World Council of Churches. According to the revised preamble of the conference, member congregations accept Christ and baptism as bases of Christian unity while recogniz- ing continuing doctrinal differ- ences among themselves. Serv- ice to others is emphasized. Each Must Agree Each member congregation must agree to take part in one of four project areas and agree to support the organization financially. The four project areas are ecumenical relations, social concerns, education and publicity, and special minis- tries such 1s to youth and the elderly. Membership fee is about 50 cents per congregation family. Father Portman said that th!!, conference will have no p er to bind member congre- gations on doctrinal matters. It can take stands on public issues only by a 60 per cent vole and must record and pub- licize dissenting views, Father Portman said.
