Humiliatenorden
Evangelische Humiliatenorden (the Evangelical Order of Humiliati) is a German High Church Lutheran religious order, founded in 1921.
The foundation of the Humiliatenorden was inspired by Friedrich Heiler.[1] It is similar to a third order with temporal vows. The order is Lutheran in its accentuation of sola gratia, while it is Catholic in its position on the sacrament and the church.[2] In 1946, under the direction of Abbot Richard Walter, the Order was "placed completely in the services of the Una Sancta idea",[3] working for Lutheran - Roman Catholic ecumenism.
