Go Back

Father Adam MacDonald, S.V.D., far left, was part of this advisory board that assisted in the writing of "Encounting Christ in Harmony."

In recent weeks, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops released two important statements regarding intercultural issues:

Asians Encountering Christ in Harmony: A Pastoral Response to Our Asian and Pacific Island Brothers and Sisters

Racism Open Wide Our Hearts: The Enduring Call to Love, A Pastoral Letter Against Racism

Father Adam MacDonald, S.V.D., a member of the NRVC Board and executive committee, was on the committee that gave input to the group that wrote the letter on Asian and Pacific Island Catholics.
