Location: Parish House
A colloquium conducted by Fr. James Dugan, SJ
Wednesdays, September 15th through October 27th
7:00 – 8:30 PM - Parish House
Participants will be invited to engage in informal conversation with the group leader and one another in order to articulate contemporary relevant questions and responses which relate to these historical, cultural, spiritual and geo-political realities.
Some of the areas for consideration will be how Rome developed as an empire and eventually became the cradle of Christianity, the roots of the rise of the Italian State and its relationship to the Roman Catholic Church, and how Vatican City (which was established through the Lateran Treaty in 1929) represents the Holy See .
