    Ecumenical formation program. A proposal of the Roman Catholic Church in the context of the assumptions of the Second Vatican Council and post-conciliar documents
    Glaeser, Zygfryd (Redakcja Wydawnictw Wydziału Teologicznego Uniwersytetu Opolskiego, 2024)
    The Second Vatican Council ushered in a profound breakthrough in the Roman Catholic Church’s thinking about the Church and the implementation of its mission in the world. It made ecumenism one of the fundamental paradigms of evangelization, and considered permanent ecumenical formation an essential commitment of all churches. The Council’s Decree on Ecumenism Unitatis redintegratio gives ecumenical formation a proper ethical framework: It demands an effective renunciation of the logic of subjugating others in favour of the logic of respect and fraternity. Thus, a program of ecumenical formation has been implemented. It covered all forms of Church teaching and life. Its fundamental goals are: breaking down negative stereotypes in mutual references between Christians and Churches, discovering what is common to different Christianities, seeking opportunities to overcome all that divides them, and above all, forming positive sensitivity in mutual relations. The program for the ecumenical formation of the Roman Catholic Church outlined in the Second Vatican Council’s Decree on Ecumenism is constantly updated in post-conciliar documents. This paper will present its basic assumptions and pastoral references at various levels of church activity.
