Abp. Cordes of Pontifical Council Cor Unum to speak in Detroit

Here's that other exciting event I alluded to last night:

Vatican's Archbishop Cordes to Speak at Seminary - September 21

Archbishop Paul Cordes, president of the Pontifical Council Cor Unum, will speak at Sacred Heart Major Seminary at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 21. His topic will be the relationship between Pope Benedict XVI's first encyclical, God Is Love (Deus Caritas Est), and the New Evangelization, a movement of spiritual and cultural renewal initiated by Pope John Paul II. The public is invited. This is a unique opportunity to hear a prominent speaker on a topic that impacts every parish in the Archdiocese of Detroit. There is no charge, but those planning on attending are asked to call (313) 883-8556 to reserve a seat for the address. A reception with refreshments will follow. [More...]

Cor Unum is essentially the Vatican's charity arm. Its mission is "the care of the Catholic Church for the needy, thereby encouraging human fellowship and making manifest the charity of Christ."

I'm looking forward to re-reading Deus Caritas Est and then attending Abp. Cordes' speech.
