  • Date: Monday, Apr 4th, 2016, 7:45 pm
  • Venue: Abbey Chapter House
  • Categories: Lecture, Scholar Presentation
Pope Francis and Bishop Antje Jackelen, Lutheran Archbishop of Lund, Sweden. The two will lead the joint commemoration celebrations in Lund, Sweden, October 31, 2016.

Pope Francis and Archbishop Antje Jackelén, Lutheran Archbishop of Uppsala, Sweden. The two will lead the joint commemoration celebrations in Lund, Sweden, October 31, 2016.

This lecture will explore the significance of the Joint Ecumenical Commemoration of the 500th anniversary of the Lutheran Reformation, and the celebratory points of 50 years of Lutheran-Catholic dialogue. Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future. In what spirit shall we commemorate this anniversary together? What can the experience of the Reformation teach us today? How might we recommit ourselves to give a common witness to the mercy of God in service to the world?
