Meeting God in Friend and Stranger
A new Catholic document on interreligious dialogue
On 23 April the launch of 'Meeting God in Friend & Stranger' by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales took place in London. Read the press release here.
Archbishop Vincent Nichols said, 'This is a most important document addressing the theme of dialogue between the faiths. It therefore addresses many points of great significance for our society, not least for those who, at this moment, do not appreciate the importance of religious faith. I hope it receives widespread attention'.
In addition to the evolution of Catholic understanding and practice of dialogue, themes covered include:
- Prayer and worship
- Interreligious marriage
- Local relationships
- Catholic examples
