Anglicans mainly, and they met annually in Rome

Relaxing before another Executive meeting
Another follow-up Conference to Brighton '91
John 13 happening in the 20th century!
The power of God was palpable and felt by the
many thousands attending a Conference in
Rimini, Italy, as the leaders from Catholic,
Protestants and Orthodox knelt in repentance
before one another on the platform. It was a
taste of the unity of heaven as many tears
were shed. Michael, seen here on the platform,
was newly Orthodox and spoke powerfully on
the Lord’s desire to heal all divisions.

Some of the new Executive of ICCOWE
Two regional conferences resulting from
Brighton '91 took place in Prague (above).
They had significant theological workshops
running concurrently. They were attended by
key theologians from all over the world, and
all churches. Much was accomplished as
Orthodox, Catholics and Protestants met daily.
The main Conferences were also especially
blessed because of the ratio between East and
West Europe and between Catholics and
Protestants. One Orthodox service (the
‘Litya’) was quiet and very moving. All
participants received anointing from
Metropolitan Kallistos Ware.
