Summary: | Since the Second Vatican Council to our own day, the awareness of the correlation between ecclesial unity and mission has increased within the Roman Catholic tradition and beyond. At the same time, our contemporaneity has challenged Christian traditions to develop the understanding of their evangelizing mission. In this framework, the implications of the link between missionary cooperation and Christian unity can be expressed in terms of a common witness of Christian hope and fraternity. While the first part of this article focuses on perspectives the Second Vatican Council introduced in Ad gentes 35–36, the second part illustrates aspects of their development in today’s context, which open up paths for our future as well. |
