Under the title Journeying Together Towards Jubilee, Martin Conway has written a report of the meeting of the World Council of Churches in its 8th and 50th Anniversary Assembly, Harare, Zimbabwe, 3-14 December 1998. Martin was an interpreter at the Harare Assembly, which is the sixth Assembly he has attended. He is an Anglican married to a Methodist, and a member of the Association of Interchurch Families. Until recently he was President of the Selly Oak Colleges, Birmingham.
Like the report that he wrote of the WCC Assembly held at Canberra, eight years ago, Journeying Together Towards Jubilee is packed with information in a very readable form. Its 64 pages of text, illustrated with photographs, are good value at £2.50 (+50p p/p) from Martin Conway at 303 Cowley Road, Oxford OX4 2AQ.
The Anglican Bishop of Southwark, the Rt Revd Tom Butler, writes in his foreword: "The campus was criss-crossed with trenches dug to accommodate computer communication cables. This produced a challenge for Assembly participants – one could often set off towards one venue but arrive at another with surprising results! I confidently expect, even hope, that readers of this booklet will find themselves engaging on a similar journey and meet with similar surprises".
