Hence the proposal of a "basic theme" which "should be consistent over time, a sort of leitmotiv underlying every project", state Giordano and Williams: "God’s Word in Europe". In addition, a specific subject to be investigated in each of the next four years, with local meetings and campaigns: in 2008 inter-religious dialogue, especially dialogue with Islam and about this the Joint Cccee/Kek Committee for Relations with Muslims in Europe (Crme) promotes an Islamic Christian conference (Malines-Brussels, 20-23 October 2008) on "Being citizens and believers in Europe. Christians and Muslims as active partners in European societies". The next subjects will be: responsibility for the Creation (2009), migration (2010), and peace, with special reference to the Middle East (2011). At the end of the letter, the greeting and gratitude of mgr. Giordano, who on 7 June was appointed permanent observer of the Holy See to the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, a greeting that has also been extended to the members of Kek, "with whom he writes I have shared many adventures, fatigues and joys over these years, since the Assembly of Graz".
