Very sadly, the Divine Liturgy in English at 9-30 am on Sundays at the Holy Family Cathedral, Lower Church, have had to be put on hold. Until the practicalities we cannot use the Lower Church space. Hopefully this will be resolved very soon. Please keep checking in here for details.

Catholic-Orthodox Unity and the Pan-Orthodox Council

Following on from the last post on Filioque, featuring Modestinus' thoughts on what needs to change between East and West, and Adam De Ville's 9-point programme for rapprochement on both sides, here is another contribution to the debate.

The Eponymous Flower blog here gives 7 points that he believes the proposed 2015 Pan Orthodox Council needs to address and resolve, followed by 10 points for the Latin Roman Catholic Church to address and develop into change.

Please bear in mind that EF sets out to provoke discussion and is not afraid of being contentious! We link to the two posts because a number of the matters raised are aired more widely and they can thus usefully be seen set out together to aid understanding a running debate.
