National Ecumenical Study Day

The Secretary-General of the Central Committee attended the National Ecumenical Study Day in Liége on Saturday 26 November 2022. The theme was ‘Ecumenism: the confusing languages of Babel or the abundance of Pentecost?’ Lectures were delivered by representatives of the Protestant, Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches - alternating in French and Flemish. The Anglican speaker was the former Archdeacon of North-West Europe (Benelux), Meurig Williams who spoke of his own rich ministry experience including languages such as French, Dutch, English, Welsh and now, Irish! For many, the highlight of the day was listening to the Lord’s Prayer being chanted in Aramaic in the Cathedral in Liége!
