SIBIU–EEA3: THIS AFTERNOON THE FORUMS ON EUROPE, RELIGIONS AND MIGRATION (2)

"Here in Sibiu – said Annemarie Duprè, in charge of the "Being Church together" project – we have to make a strong appeal to all the Churches for all migrants, regardless of their beliefs". "We are called to give a testimony of the fact that living, working, and praying together, while belonging to different nationalities, races and cultures, is possible and is an enriching experience. The presence of a delegation of Christian migrants from different European countries is a sign of this hope". Finally the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, René Van der Linden, confided to the press that there are great expectations within the Council of Europe for the visit of the Patriarch of Moscow Alexius II next October, because "this is – he said – an important sign which highlights the spirit of cooperation and collaboration that exists between the Churches in Europe".
