A note regarding these minutes:
These are not official minutes, but rather, an attempt on behalf of the co-secretaries to take note of the key points being made in the course of discussions. Members did not have the opportunity to make corrections. There is no guarantee that the quotations recorded here are accurate. This should clearly be noted when they are being drawn upon for research purposes. The minutes did provide members with a basic overview of what was being discussed and what points were raised; and they can provide researchers with a window into the nature and tone of the dialogue which characterizes these meetings, as well as a sense of the parameters of the discussion on particular points.

Resolution 11
That, in the opinion of this Conference, the following articles supply a basis on which approach may be by God’s blessing made towards home reunion:
a. The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, as “containing all things necessary to salvation,” and as being the rule and ultimate standard of faith.
b. The Apostles’ Creed, as the baptismal symbol; and the Nicene Creed, as the sufficient statement of the Christian faith.
c. The two sacraments ordained by Christ himself – Baptism and the Supper of the Lord – ministered with unfailing use of Christ’s words of institution, and of the elements ordained by him.
d. The historic episcopate, locally adapted in the methods of its administration to the varying needs of the nations and peoples called of God into the unity of his Church.
