Towards Unity: Catholic/Orthodox Dialogue

24/01/2012 2:45 pm

Bishop Angaelos, Coptic Bishop, and Archbishop Kevin McDonald celebrate the release of a book of Catholic/Orthodox joint-statements

As the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2012 draws to a close, we're taking a closer look at how dialogue and understanding between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Churches has taken a significant step forward.

The Catholic-Oriental Orthodox Regional Forum has released a book containing the joint-statements and agreements issued by the Catholic and Oriental Orthodox Churches.

The Co-Chairs of this relatively young forum, established in 2007, join us for today's Catholic News podcast. You'll hear from two bishops who have long engaged in ecumenical dialogue to find unity in the person in Christ. His Grace Archbishop Kevin McDonald, Archbishop Emeritus of Southwark, and His Grace Bishop Angaelos, General Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Great Britain talk about the book’s aims and purpose.
