Description
Summary:Ecumenism serves to promote communion between Christian groups. In this paper I will discuss how the transposition of this principle in the university setting has shown to be effective in liturgical formation among university students. The thesis of the article is as follows: Ecumenical learning can be fostered by combining reflective, relational, and experiential learning methods. The implementation of ecumenical learning in the university setting has been shown to provide three constructive outcomes: (1) It facilitates the sharing of liturgical gifts by offering an environment in which the exchange of gifts can take place, (2) it strengthens ecumenical awareness, and (3) it fosters mutual appreciation.
