The advocates of interCommunion argue that since the "church" embraces all those who follow Christ, the sacrament is not the property of a single tradition, and is thus appropriate for Christians working or praying together. Van den Heuvel points out that most cases of interCommunion have taken place in situations of "secular ecumenicity," where Christians are working together to relate the church to social problems, and "there is nothing more normal than to express that unity in liturgical form...
