REFLECTION: JANSSEN SPIRITUALITY CENTRE

(3rd August (Sunday) 2008). When I saw the figures of four different religions of the world in their distinguished religious habits (See photo below), I told to myself: “Fantastic! That’s the beginning of interfaith dialogue!” This was at the official opening ceremony of the Janssen Spirituality Centre at Boronia, Vic. Thanks to the God of the Jews, Christians, Muslims, and of different religions as well, for peoples of different faiths are now willing to stand next to one another to dialogue and pray. Yes, it is through dialogue that we might be able to discover that, though we are different, we are virtually very similar. ~ Michael Nguyen, SVD
