Our Ecumenical/Interfaith Mission Week of Prayer for
Christian Unity Ecumenical/Interfaith Happenings |
Our The Ecumenical/Interfaith Committee seeks to bring
and authentic ecumenical sprit and understanding to the ongoing renewal of
the Secular Order. In the Spirit of
our Lord and our beloved St. Francis, we seek to foster the ministry of
reconciliation in every part of our fraternal life, and thereby witness to
the world our unique Franciscan charism and our prophetic witness to the
unity of all creation. The Committee will be a means of
reflective, responsible and respectful dialogue and fraternal relationships
with our non-Roman catholic sisters and brothers in light of the documents of
the Church and our Constitutions. Our
task is thus to be an instrument of unity and understanding for the
Franciscan family, challenging ourselves to bring a Franciscan focus to the ministry
of Christian Unity, in the household of God, the Church, and among all our
communities. |
