Excerpt from Proceedings of the Third Œcumenical Methodist Conference: Held in City Road Chapel, London, September, 1901
It would have added to the joy of the Conference if any decisive step could have been reported towards Union between some at least of the several Methodist Churches in Great Britain and in the United States. But it was tacitly recognised that in the countries where Methodism has been longest planted, is most widely and strongly entrenched, and has the memory of past struggles still surviving, the difficulties in the way of Union are the greatest. The Conference, however, greatly rejoiced in the fact that controversy between Methodist Churches is a thing of the past, and the relations between those Churches are cordially harmonious, and Show promise of an increasing intimacy of relation and feeling as the years pass on.
It must be admitted, and the Conference indicated this by resolution, that the programme gave inadequate opportunity for the discussion of some of the topics which should be most congenial to the Methodist spirit. Woman's work in the Church, for instance, was only represented by an extemporised public meeting added to the programme, and to the imperial subject of Foreign Missions only one day was allotted. These and some other topics will doubtless have larger Opportunity given to them at future Conferences.
