International Interfaith Dialogue Converges on Wellington
The Wellington Council of Christians and Jews is hosting an international conference on 13-14 May on the “Twelve Points of Berlin”, the charter for Christian-Jewish dialogue. Speakers include International Council of Christians and Jews President Deborah Weissman, Australian Sister of Our Lady of Sion Dr Marianne Dacy, Federation of Islamic Associations NZ CEO Sultan Eusoff, and VUW Chair of Religious Studies Prof Paul Morris, who will join the discussion with academics, clergy, and interested lay people from New Zealand and Australia. The conference aims to formulate an Australasian response to the Twelve Points, and put them into action in our region.
