Worship Key Element in WCC Assembly in Australia. While they were often divided on the issues debated in plenary sessions, participants in the World Council of Churches Assembly in Australia joined in daily worship in a huge tent on the grounds of Australian National University. The Rev. Jacqueline Grant of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the U.S. (center) preached at a special ecumenical Lima Liturgy the first Sunday of the Assembly on the theme, "Ain't Gonna Study War No More."
