and the United States; French-speaking groups in France and Switzerland, German-speaking
groups in Germany and Austria, together with Italian groups. Some of these associations
and groups were founded in the 1960's; others have been formed more recently." [Deutsch,

- Towards greater co-operation in
ministry
A communiqué issued by the church leaders of Saskatchewan in December 1992 encouraging
shared ministries. Shared ministry is a distinctive contribution of Canadian churches to
ecumenical structures. A shared ministry is normally a congregation in which a single
minister is called to serve by two or more denominational bodies. The congregation belongs
to each denomination and the minister is responsible to the respective judicatories.
