2025 Joseph Cardinal Bernardin Jerusalem Lecture
SIXTY YEARS AFTER NOSTRA AETATE: A JEWISH PERSPECTIVE ON ITS UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Join us for the 28th Annual Joseph Cardinal Bernardin Jerusalem Lecture with opening remarks by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago.
Immense good will accompanied the initial moves to implement Vatican II’s Nostra Aetate’s teachings about Jews and Judaism. However, this process proved to be far from simple, presenting regular challenges. Where have we come, what have we learned, and what remains to be done? Moderated Q & A session to follow.
