The Ecumenical Figure of St. Paul: A Journey to the Abbey of Saint Paul Outside-the-Walls

Join us on a journey to the Abbey of Saint Paul Outside-the-Walls, located near the tomb of St. Paul the Apostle, as we explore the symbolic significance of this ancient monastery and its connection to the Second Vatican Council. Abbot Reverend Dom Donato Ogliari, O.S.B., shares his insights on the great reform of the Council and the need to make the Gospel message contemporary while keeping the content of faith unchanged. Discover how the Abbey embodies the traditions and vocations of two figures, St. Paul and St. Benedict, and how their coexistence provides a roadmap for the Church and every believer to effectively share their faith with the world.
