Now It’s Our Turn

“Every Church, every Christian community is called to step in and accept the encounter and the confrontation with other cultures and other faiths. While valuing and protecting its own initiatives, it must remain open to listening to the messages that come from elsewhere, to accept or to reject and criticize them in accordance with the basic reference point: the Gospel.” These words of Jesuit Fr. José Minaku Lukoli remind us of the new role that the African Church has to assume in the midst of the continent’s struggle for justice and peace.

Land of Christian-Islamic Encounter

Is Christian-Muslim dialogue still not considered a priority more than 40 years after the promulgation of the Vatican Council II document, Nostra Aetate? The Christian-Islamic encounter is potentially easier and more fruitful right in Africa, where the Islamic community often has absorbed a spirit of tolerance and the capacity to live in harmony with neighbors, which is typical of traditional African cultures.

A Lively Community Among the Garbage

Four Comboni Missionaries and a lay person share their lives with the 120,000 poverty-stricken Korogocho slum dwellers and, with them, breathe daily the foul stench of Nairobi’s dumping site. But, they prefer to stress how they have been personally enriched by the experience.

A Life For Unity

Chiara Lubich, who died aged 88, was one of the most inspiring and influential women in world Catholicism. During her long life, she witnessed the grassroots religious movement she founded in her native Italy during World War II, the “Focolare,” grow under her leadership to encompass 2 million adherents in 182 countries and open its ranks to non-Catholics and also non-Christians. Small in stature, a gifted speaker and best-selling author of many spiritual books, she was guided by her conviction that Jesus was alive in the world. Her loyalty to the Church and her determination to follow the example of the crucified and forsaken Christ made her an icon of unity in a world torn by division.

What is There Between You And Us?
