Full communion includes sharing the eucharist and interchangeability of clergy.
We plan to publish reports on this subject in upcoming issues. A member of the ELCA Church Council now attends meetings of the Episcopal Church's highest gove rning body. They will reciprocate by sending a representative to our council's meeting this month. An ELCA bishop sits on the ecumenical relations committee of the Reformed Church of America. Episcopal and ELCA bishops will meet jointly in October.
