Abstract
"From its beginnings the World Council of Churches (WCC) has been committed to the building of bridges between East and West, and in so doing it has striven to be with its member-churches in socialist countries, encouraging them on their difficult journey. After the Russian Orthodox Church became a member, followed by other Eastern European churches, in 1961, the task was to reach out to all eight states of the then socialist European camp."
