Coffee and Eucharistic Ecclesiology

Friends:

One of the joys of service as Director of the Consortium is learning new things.

Yesterday afternoon I had coffee with Anastacia Wooden–a doctoral student at CUA-and heard about her work on the famous Russian Orthodox theologian Nicolas Afanasiev.

I congratulated her on her article in the recent issue of the Journal of Ecumenical Studies on the eucharistic ecclesiology of Afanasiev and its ecumenical significance.

She explained some of her developing thought to me–fascinating.

Peace,
John
