K43t"The new World Council of Churches (WCC) ecumenical affirmation on mission and evangelism, Together towards Life: Mission and Evangelism in Changing Landscapes, was prepared by the Commission on World Mission and Evangelism (CWME) and was unanimously approved as an official statement of the WCC by the central committee at its meeting on the island of Crete, Greece, on 5 September 2012. The CWME is thankful to God that the world church and mission bodies of the WCC have been able to reach a common understanding of and commitment to God's mission today. The commission is also grateful that the affirmation is provoking fresh interest in the new vision of ecumenical mission thinking and action. After the central committee's approval, CWME organized a consultation in January 2013, Kochi, India. The aim was to translate the new concepts brought by the affirmation into missional actions in local congregations, mission organizations and missiological formation. Based on the consultation, A Practical Guide on the new statement has been produced by the commission. Therefore, this book consists of three components: Part One is the new WCC affirmation on mission and evangelism, Together towards Life: Mission and Evangelism in Changing Landscapes. Part Two is A Practical Guide to the affirmation approved by CWME. The third component is a DVD that contains video clips on the history and activities of CWME, the eight preparatory study reports to the new statement, and the centenary issue of the International Review of Mission (IRM)"--Pages vii-viii.
