The Budapest conference on the theme "Serve God, not Mammon" in June 2001 was one in a series of ecumenical meetings organized by the World Council of Churches (WCC) and the World Alliance of Reformed Churches (WARC). This series of meetings began with an initiative by WCC and WARC (in response to the call from Harare that the two organizations should do something together on the issue of globalization) and has expanded to include other partners (for example, the Pacific Conference of Churches, Conference of European Churches) as appropriate. These meetings seek to find a responsible ecumenical response to the challenge of globalization.
