Описание
Итог:Despite the Religious Education Association (REA)'s founding vision as an interfaith association, for most of its first fifty years it remained a largely Protestant organization. Under Herman Wornom's leadership as general secretary from 1952 to 1970, the REA began more fully to fulfill its aims of becoming more broadly inclusive. Through Wornom's efforts to include Jews and Catholics in particular, the REA moved toward becoming more ecumenical and interreligious in scope. While Wornom's pluralist aims were shaped largely by mid-twentieth-century ideals of America as a Judeo-Christian nation, he, nonetheless, opened the door to wider ecumenical and interreligious encounters within the REA.
