Forerunner conference of World Council of Churches (WCC)
Missionaries who had been happy to work alongside their opposite numbers from other denominations while working alongside "non-Christian peoples" were invited to put their views to this international conference.

The International Missionary Council (IMC) was formed (see conferences in 1928, 1938, 1947 & 1958) before merging with WCC in 1961.

Seven major topics were discussed:

1. Unity
2. The Church's message
3. The nature of the Church
4. A common confession of faith
5. Ministry
6. Sacraments
7. The unity of Christendom
