Institutionele geschiedenis
On March 26, 1992 Rosaleen Zdunich, Chair of the Commission for Ecumenism and Interfaith Relations at the Archdiocese of Edmonton, and Rev. Bernard de Margerie, Chair of the Saskatoon Diocesan Commission for Ecumenism wrote to the Most Rev. Antoine Hacault, Archbishop of St. Boniface requesting the permission to establish a regional ecumenical conference or association in Western Canada. Similar organizations had previously been established in Ontario and Quebec.
The purpose of the association was to lend support and encouragement to the ecumenical movement in the Church and its leadership, especially to diocesan ecumenical officers. Conferences are organized annually to provide a time for individuals working in Ecumenical and Interfaith rolls in Dioceses and Eparchies in Western Canada to gather and share resources and knowledge.
There appears to have been a break in activities between 1999 and 2004. When the organization re-formed in 2004 they created a formal set of guidelines in which the aims, membership, dues, voting, and responsibilities are explained in detail.
Geschiedenis beheer
Records have been transferred from secretary to secretary for the past 10 years. It was felt that the secretary no longer needed to keep all the records on hand and so it was decided that the records could be deposited at the Archdiocese of Edmonton Archives where the records of the Western Conference of Catholic Bishops are also located.
Bereik en inhoud
The fonds consists of records documenting the actions and activities of the Western Diocesan and Eparchial Coordinators for Ecumenism from their establishment in 1992. Files consist mainly of administrative records and include meeting minutes, correspondence and some reference materials.
Between 1999 and 2004 it appears that the WDECE was not meeting regularly, or at the very least no records exist from this period of time.
The fonds is arranged into the following files:
1 : Ecumenism Resource Kit
2 : WDECE Conference : 1992
