The Pauline Book Center of Barcelona, capital of the Catalan region, recently organized two meetings on Sacred Scripture.
The first, held in October, launched the book La Bibliacompartida (The Shared Bible), published by St. Paul Editions and the Bible Animation School of Barcelona. The new text, which is very pastoral in scope, was realized through the intense collaboration of nine authors specialized in different fields. The large crowd that attended the book launch followed the proceedings attentively.
The same enthusiasm characterized the second encounter, held in November, on the theme: Abraham, Our Father in Faith. Here too, numerous people participated in the event, which opened Barcelona’s Fifth Bible Week. The Week’s agenda, geared to all those who wanted to become more familiar with the Bible, included conferences on the Faith, Lectio Divina, celebrations and concerts.
