Vatican II & the Elderly Methodist Woman

Written By Christ The Reconciler

It is no accident that the greatest Catholic reform in centuries - Vatican II - occurred after a half-century of intense Protestant ecumenism. I wonder: To which Protestants’ prayers was Vatican II the answer? I’d like to think that Vatican II was the Lord’s answer to the prayers of an elderly Methodist woman worried about her Catholic grandchildren.
