Pope Francis' Trip to the Holy Land

As it is well known already, in the next three days Pope Francis will be doing an Ecumenical trip to the Holy Land. I am recommending an article on NPR by Sylvia Poggioli which is titled: Pope To Travel To Holy Land With Rabbi And Muslim Leader. In the article, Sylvia Poggioli quotes John Allen, who is the Vatican analyst for The Boston Globe. Mr. Allen said:

"With Francis, his focus in interreligious dialogue is much more on the present — it's what are the challenges of today, poverty and war, and what can the religions do together in facing them," Allen says. "It is a mode of interreligious dialogue that is free of the ghosts of the past."


I hope you enjoy the article, and I will be possibly be providing other links with relevance to the trip by Pope Francis, but the link to this article in reference is below. Hope you enjoy reading…blessings!
