The Lutheran and the Catholic church in Slovakia have have few contacts with each other on account of the very painful conflicts of the past which still make their effects felt in the present. The idea of the seminar was that common work on relevant ecumenical documents far from home could create a new opportunity for young Catholic and Lutheran theologians to talk with one another.<!--more--><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.strasbourginstitute.org\/wp-content\/gallery\/meetings\/slovak3.jpg\" alt=\"slovak3\" \/>The texts under examination were the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification and the new Catholic-Lutheran statement \u201cFrom Conflict to Communion,\u201d which deals with the question of whether and how Lutherans together with Catholics can commemorate the 2017 anniversary of the beginning of the Reformation. Under the direction of Institute Prof. Theodor Dieter, the two documents were carefully and precisely read and then discussed in detail. At the same time, the conversations ranged widely and often lasted until late in the night. There was an atmosphere of openness, listening, and desire to understand that furthered the sense of trust, which the particpants welcomed gladly. The group work will continue in Bratislava: a plan was formed for a group of Catholic and Lutheran students to translate \u201cFrom Conflict to Communion\u201d into Slovak, which will create further opportunities for taking up theological questions on the relationships between Catholics and Lutherans.<\/p>\n<p>The theological work was complemented by a visit to the Council of Europe, expeditions into the city and cathedral accompanied by a lecture on the church history of Strasbourg, and a trip to the Humanist Library in S\u00e9lestat, the Unterlinden Museum in Colmar, the Oberlin Museum in Waldersbach, and finally a wine-tasting and dinner of tarte flamb\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<p>Among the many positive comments from the participants were these:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe week of intensive study at the Ecumenical Institute has strengthened my conviction of the necessity of a common ground between Catholic and Protestant positions. I hope that this view and knowledge that I have gained will useful for only for myself but also for my Catholic church community in Slovakia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you that I could spend such a wonderful week in Strasbourg! It really appreciate that I could participate and learn a lot from the discussions we had with Prof. Dieter. They enriched my theological knowledge and encouraged me to continue in the ecumenical dialogue in Slovakia. Thank you for your hospitality! I am really glad I could see this beautiful part of Alsace with its rich traditions. The museums in S\u00e9lestat, Colmar, and Waldersbach were awesome! Finally, I have to confess that the wine you have there is a delightful gift from God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would like to express to my deepest gratitude to you for the possibility to participate in the seminar at the Institute for Ecumenical \u00a0Research in Strasbourg led by Prof. Theodor Dieter. I also really enjoyed informal conversations and activities with Prof. Dieter and the other students from different Christian traditions. I can definitely say that it was not only a formal study week, but a real ecumenical experience!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was in every respect an instructive week. The impressions were very positive. I can say that with your erudition, experience, and humanity, you won everybody over for ecumenism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This seminar was made possible through the financial support of Lutheran parishes in the towns of Ettlingen and Backnang in Germany.
