- (7 Jul 2018) Pope Francis on Saturday denounced the "murderous indifference" that has allowed violence to consume the Middle East and drive tens of thousands of Christians from their homes, calling out global powers for seeking power and profit at the expense of the region's people during a remarkable gathering of Orthodox patriarchs and Catholic leaders.
Francis hosted the daylong ecumenical service in the Adriatic port city of Bari, considered a religious bridge between East and West and home to the relics of St. Nicholas, an important saint in the Orthodox Christian world.
Francis greeted the patriarchs outside the Basilica of St. Nicholas and together they descended to the crypt to pray before the relics and light a flame for peace symbolising the unity of Christians divided by over 1,000 years of schism.
For years, the Vatican has voiced concern about the plight of Christians driven from Mideast communities that date to the time of Christ.

True ecumenism
#all_glory_to_interchurch_universal_ecumenism ...
And the Jews say:. Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (himself) fighteth against them. How perverse are they!
Ezra a son of God ? what nonsense. Who gave you such information. It is not mentioned anywhere in the Jewish Scripture.
What Jew has said Ezra is the son of God? Lol
#antiecumenism
why?
