Catholic-Jewish Dialogue

 

The “Pope’s Rabbi” is coming to town – Save the date, Sunday, April 3, 2022 at 3:00 pm.

By: Richard Price, Catholic-Jewish Dialogue member

The Catholic-Jewish Dialogue of Collier County proudly presents Rabbi Abraham Skorka who will describe his 25 year “deep and sincere friendship” with Jorge Bergolio, the former Archbishop of Buenos Aires, who is now Pope Francis.

This friendship, which continues to this day, began a dialogue that became an important component of both their personal lives and responsibilities as clergy.  They collaborated in writing a book and engaged in 31 TV discussions.

According to Rabbi Skorka, “Our personal dialogues had taken on the mission of spreading a culture of dialogue throughout society In as many ways as possible.”

This program is brought to you by the Catholic-Jewish Dialogue of Collier County and the Diocese of Venice in Florida.
