From a reader:
I write to inform you of a conference this May in Rome: "Conversion & Coexistence". As the website www.danteconference.eventbrite.com explains, we're having Cardinal Burke as Keynote Speaker, and we're honoring the 750th anniversary of the birth of Dante Alighieri and also honoring the 750th anniversary of the death of Blessed Ramon Llull who wrote hundreds of works and spent his life trying to convert Muslims and Jews. Lastly, it's the 450th anniversary this May of the Muslim siege of Malta.
But the Conference is just the climax of a 10 Day Pilgrimage to Italy to see the special exhibition of the Holy Shroud of Turin and to honor St. Philip Neri on his feast day and 500th anniversary of his birth.
