The Seven Ecumenical Councils:
Where they happened; What they Decided; Why they matter
The Nicene Creed is said every Sunday and defines fundamental Christian doctrine. The First Council of Nicaea met exactly 1700 years ago from May – July 325. Some of us recently went on pilgrimage to the site of the Council and of the seven other Councils held up to 787. The Seven Ecumenical Councils of the whole Church formulated the belief of the Church. We still say the Nicene Creed every Sunday and holy day.
This illustrated talk by Fr Luke will be a mixture of history, travellers’ tales from those of us who went on the pilgrimage, teaching about what the creed says, and reflection on why it is still important for us.
