EVANGELICAL CHURCH CONFERENCE

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 1 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
EVANGELICAL CHURCH CONFERENCE , a convention of delegates from the different
Protestant
  churches of Germany. The conference originated in 1848, when the general desire for political unity made itself felt in the ecclesiastical sphere as well. A preliminary
meeting
  was held at Sandhof near Frankfort in June of that year, and on the 21st of September some five hundred delegates representing the Lutheran, the Reformed, the United and the Moravian churches assembled at Wittenberg. The gathering was known as Kirchentag (
church
  diet), and, while leaving each denomination free in respect of constitution,
ritual
 ,
doctrine
  and attitude towards the state, agreed to act unitedly in bearing
witness
  against the non-evangelical churches and in defending the rights and liberties of the churchc3 ii the federation. The organization thus closely resembles that of the Free
Church
  Federation in England. The
movement
  exercised considerable influence during the middle of the 19th century. Though no Kirchentag, as such, has been convened since 1871, its place has been taken by the Kongrcss fur innere Mission, which holds annual meetings in different towns. There is also a biennial conference of the evangelical churches held at Eisenach to discuss matters of general
interest
 . Its decisions have no legislative force.
