3 Apr 2019


During his Apostolic Journey to Morocco from 30–31 March 2019, Pope Francis met with the Ecumenical Council of Churches during his meeting with priests, religious and consecrated persons in the Cathedral of St Peter in Rabat on 31 March. In his address, the Holy Father greeted members of the Council by stating that their presence was a “clear sign of the communion experienced here in Morocco between Christians of different confessions along the path to unity”. Pope Francis continued, “May your charity be ever active and thus a path of communion between Christians of every confession present in Morocco: the ecumenism of charity. May it be also a path of dialogue and cooperation with our Muslim brothers and sisters, and with all men and women of good will”.
