In observance of Church Unity Week, join the Benedictine Sisters of Florida for a presentation by Dr. Matthew Tapie at 7 p.m. on Monday, January 22, at Holy Name Monastery.
Catholic-Jewish Relations before and after Nostra Aetate
Dr. Tapie will provide an overview of the Catholic-Jewish Relationship pre- and post-Nostra
Aetate, proclaimed in 1965 by Pope Paul VI. The first half of the session will offer some historical
encounters of Catholic-Jewish relations, along with some of the challenges and successes.
The second half will offer a snapshot of our current relations enlightened much by
the influence of Pope St. John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI, and Pope Francis.
