Formal dialogue with the Christian Church
(Disciples of Christ) began in the very recent past. Unlike other
dialogues that began more than thirty years ago, the initial meetings of
a dialogue allow for general introductions that become more specific
over time. These allows all participants to learn about and
appreciate the historical richness of each denomination.
The ELCA and the Christian Church (Disciples of
Christ) met for the first time in April 2004 with an initial series of
papers exploring a common understanding of Holy Communion. A great deal
of agreement was reached. The dialogue will undertake further
discussion beginning in 2007, with specific consideration of the
sacrament of Holy Baptism. For further information about Christian
