Pfeil to speak on intercessory prayer in Mennonite and Catholic traditions

Bridgefolk participant and former board member Margaret Pfeil will speak on intercessory prayer in Mennonite and Catholic traditions at Seton Hall University on October 19 at 5 p.m. EDT. Her talk will be available virtually. Pfeil is co-editor of the recently published book Intercessory Prayers and the Communion of Saints: Mennonite and Catholic Perspectives, based on a conference and a colloquium organized by Bridgefolk. In the first, many witnesses described the story of Jun Yamada, and the circumstances surrounding the miracle of his healing. The second explored Mennonite and Catholic theological perspectives on the key theological themes which help to interpret what happened, namely intercessory prayer and the communion of saints.
