It's a pity that we give ecumenism such short shrift when our Lord's last prayer on earth was that we all may be one. I'm glad our wonderful pope understands the importance of this. I'm not so sure his predecessor was on board to quite the same degree, but I'm glad to see that Francis is making gracious overtures to the Anglicans and Lutherans. More substantial dialogue with those ecclesial bodies in particular is long overdue.  Viva Papa Francisco!
