Course Description

The stereotype behind reconciliation is the erroneous idea of "forgive and forget." The Catholic Church teaches that authentic reconciliation is to remember and forgive, lest dangerous memories of past wrongs rise to the surface and scupper the reconciliation that occurs or has the potential to happen. What does it mean to remember and forgive will be the focus of this talk.
