Ecumenical Meeting with the Pope

On Friday, 18 July, His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI addressed an ecumenical gathering during a service in the Crypt of St Mary's Cathedral, Sydney.

The Covenant signed by the member Churches of the National Council of Churches in Australia was recognised by His Holiness as an example of the common commitment of Australians to "cordial and frank discussion."
