Reading a devotional from a former minister friend, I was surprised to read his comment beginning “the year we spent at the Ecumenical Institute in Jerusalem….” I didn’t know we had presence in Jerusalem, so….</div>

I looked up Ecumenical Institute of Jerusalem on Google and discovered that the Tantur Ecumenical Institute officially opened in1972 following its initial dreaming in 1964 from a meeting with Pope Paul VI and Greek Orthodox Patriarch. The Tantur EI was founded
by the University of Notre Dame. Clicking on the link to Notre Dame brought the article quoted below about Theodore Hesberg. I have some recollection about Hesberg being a former board member or consultant or something. I recall there was a visit to Rome
at one time. Someone help me with this vague memory. </div>
