He said the first ecumenical task was to listen to the word of God, which is something all Christians can do together in prayer and reflection on Scripture.

The second task, he said, was to communicate the word of God to others, including those who have never heard the Gospel and those who have “forgotten it and buried it under the worries and deceptions of the world.”

Secularism is a threat to individual morality and to public well-being. In the face of this common enemy, we must make a stronger effort to unite with our separated brethren.
