Ratisbonne Centre (Jerusalem, Israel)
Biography
The challenge is to create in Jerusalem a first-class post-graduate program for educating Catholics in Jewish studies. Major steps have been taken in the last two years: Anew president-rector has been appointed, the former dean of the Catholic Institute in Paris, and the French language program at the Ratisbonne Centre is now of an extremely high quality. In addition, the Congregation for Catholic Education in Rome has granted pontifical status to the Institute. The Holy Father has in these last few years expressed a vital, personal interest in its survival. Recognizing that the majority of Jews living outside of Israel live in English speaking countries, most especially in the United State of America, but also in Canada, Great Britain, and other countries of the former British Commonwealth, there is the need now to put in place a strong program in the English language.
