We are Neighbours: Catholics and Evangelicals in Canada

July 9, 2021

A new resource has been created and released by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops – Evangelical Fellowship of Canada National Dialogue.

We are Neighbours: Catholics and Evangelicals in Canada is a study guide based on the 2016 CCCB text Our Evangelical Neighbours – A Catholic Reflection on Evangelical Christianity and the 2019 Evangelical Fellowship of Canada text entitled Our Roman Catholic Neighbours.

This new study guide aims to harvest the fruits of both “Neighbour Papers” by inviting Catholics and Evangelicals to come together to form joint study groups. The guide includes study questions, suggested ice-breakers, ideas for considering common social action, and suggestions for building relationships through faith practice. This guide aims to assist Catholics and Evangelicals, wherever they may encounter each other in Canadian society, to become more familiar with their brothers and sisters in Christ.

Prayer for Tolerance, Forgiveness, ReconciliationO God, Creator and Father of all, with humility we your children acknowledge the relationship of all living things.For this we thank you, we praise you and we worship you.We call on you, Great Mystery, the Word made Flesh — our teacher, prophet and brother — to open our hearts to all our brothers and sisters,and with them to grow in the wisdom, honesty, courage and respectfulness shown in The Sacred Teachings.Give us the vision and honesty to recognize that the we are all brothers and sisters of one human family, created and sustained by the One Creator.As we deal with many challenges, may we never give way to fear and anger, which can be the source of division and threat amongst peoples.We look to how God always gives to us, as a remedy for sins of prejudice and intolerance.We see in God the Creator of all things, One who always provides and is generous — even given the abuses we have heaped on one another and on the Earth.We see in the Son, Jesus Christ — the innocent Victim who pours His life blood out from the Cross for all peoples.We see how the Holy Spirit is God’s gift, alive in our world today — inspiring vision and hope that we can have the same mind and heart of God!May Your Spirit bless the souls who died at the Kamloops residential school and all souls who died at residential schools.May this same Spirit also bring blessing and healing to all families and communities affected in any way by the schools.O Creator, show us the way to healing, forgiveness and reconciliation and a renewed fellowship.Amen ...
