The Church of England and the Methodist Church have been divided for over two hundred years. In ten days' time the Methodist Conference meeting in Birmingham and the Convocations of the Church of England will vote on the future relations of the two Churches. Tonight in the Methodist Central Hall, Coventry, both denominations, together with members of the Congregational Church and Salvation Army, unite in Songs of Praise.
