SASKATOON (CCN)—A Reformation 500 study series prepared by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada (ELCIC) and the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) was launched Sept. 20 in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Saskatoon.

The first of five sessions was held at Saskatoon’s Zion Lutheran Church. Lutheran pastor Rev. Ron Bestvater facilitated the evening of dialogue and sharing, which included prayer, a video presentation and small group discussion.

The series, developed to mark the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, will continue at different venues into October. For more information visit the Diocese of Saskatoon’s website.
