This year the Department of Systematic Theology at the University of the Free State (UFS) hosted the general meeting of the Theological Community of South Africa for the first time since 1988. This annual meeting was attended by approximately 60 delegates for across South Africa, countries in Africa, Europe and the USA. The theme of this year’s meeting was: Ecumenical movements in South Africa: Edinburgh 1910, Cottlesloe 1960 and beyond. According to Prof. Ernest Conradie from the University of the Western Cape, the objective of this meeting is to reflect upon and discuss the nature of the ecumenical movement in the South African context. It is also envisaged that various academic publications will appear on this theme. |
