Ecumenical Commemoration in Sweden

9/22/2016

 
One of the major ecumenical events of this year, and this decade, will take place next month in Sweden. I'm writing to forward a notice about it below:

The Lutheran World Federation and the Roman Catholic Church will hold a joint ecumenical commemoration of the Reformation on October 31, 2016 in Lund and Malmö, Sweden. It will begin with a liturgy in Lund Cathedral and continue with a public event in Malmö Arena that will be open to wider participation.

Pope Francis, LWF President Bishop Dr Munib A. Younan and LWF General Secretary the Rev. Dr Martin Junge will lead the common prayer service in Lund and the event in Malmö in cooperation with leaders from Church of Sweden and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Stockholm.

The event will take place in anticipation of the 500th Reformation anniversary in 2017. It will highlight the solid ecumenical developments between Roman Catholics and Lutherans and the joint gifts received through dialogue.

The event has its own website at http://www.lund2016.net , and there will be more resources available online as the date for it approaches.
