Aims
This course is designed to introduce participants to the ecumenical and interreligious movements from a Catholic perspective.
It will offer a historical and theological overview of the issues that divide Christians as well as the bonds that unite them.
The program will explore relations with other religious traditions.
The course, which is in English, is for men and women who are in preparation for ministry or religious life, who are in the mission field, who are ecumenical officers or members of ecumenical commissions, or who are looking for a sabbatical experience led by qualified professors and ecumenists.

Our ministry for Christian Unity
The Centro Pro Unione is born from the ecumenical charism of the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement, a branch of the Franciscan family founded by the Servant of God Fr. Paul Wattson and Mother Lurana White at the end of the XIX century.
Its principle mission is to provide a place for research, meetings and encounters, formation in theological, social and spiritual ecumenism as well as promoting a sensitivity to the ecumenical movement.

Lectures on the theme
Speaker
Michael D. CALABRIA, OFM, PhD · Director, Center for Arab and Islamic Studies, St. Bonaventure University (USA)
Lecture details
“One of the obstacles in Christian-Muslims relations today is a persistent narrative of conflict between the two faith communities, one that is intensified by contemporary geo-politics. Historians of art and architecture tell a different story, however — a story in which materials, ideas and aesthetics flowed freely between Christians and Muslims in Islamic lands, and between Islamic lands and Western Europe. Using selected works of art and architecture, this presentation will show the deep and abiding cultural connections between Christians and Muslims through the ages.”
