WASHINGTON (OSV News) – James Griffin, executive director of the Durandus Institute for Sacred Music & Liturgy, said the annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 'was instilled' in him at the parish church of his youth, Our Lady of Atonement Church in San Antonio.
The weeklong Christian ecumenical observance, taking place Jan. 18-25 this year, 'is important for all Christians' but has 'even greater significance' for Catholics coming from the Anglican tradition, Griffin told OSV News.
