This page assembles a varety of documents on interreligious dialogue issues by the Holy See.
In 1995 the Thirty Fourth General Congregation of the Society of Jesus promulgated Decree Five: Our Mission and Interreligious Dialogue. This document not only recognized religious pluralism as a fact of life in our times, but also insisted that interreligious encounter and dialogue must become accepted as an integral dimension of the ministries of Jesuits and those who work with Jesuits. While only a few can be "experts" on religions and dialogue, all of us will be able to engage in interreligious communication in our daily lives, our work for justice, and in the depths of our spiritual experience. "Our Mission and Interreligious Dialogue" is therefore the guiding measure for our commitment to dialogue in the United States, even though we must find ways of implementing its ideals that are appropriate to this American culture.
Jesuit efforts in interreligious dialouge are coordinated through the Jesuit Secretariat in Rome as well as on the assistancy and province level. This page collects documents that come from that office as well as writings from the current head of the office, Fr. Thomas Michel, S.J.
