A consultation of international religious leaders delivered a consensus statement to the United Nations on the eve of its 60th annual General Assembly in New York, reaffirming support for the Millennium Development Goals and calling for increased collaboration between churches and governments to augment their work for the poor.

An interfaith service of music and prayer, held at Washington National Cathedral September 11, marked the beginning of the three-day Consultation.
