Pray for success and eventual reunification of our Church.
VATICAN CITY, JAN. 31, 2006 (Zenit.org).- At its third meeting an international commission for theological dialogue between the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches studied three key topics linked to the idea of ecclesial communion.
The meeting, of the Mixed International Commission for Theological Dialogue between the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Churches, ended on Monday in Etchmiadzin, Armenia. The panel aims to help overcome a 1,500-year schism.
The three topics were: “bishops in the apostolic succession, the relationship between primacy and synods/collegiality, and the functioning and ecclesiological importance of synods at the local and ecumenical level.”
