A new Judeo-Christian group was established here Monday to further “better relations between the two faiths in this city.” Its first activity will be a seminar to be held at the Antwerp Theological and Pastoral Center Feb. 24 on the theme of “Christians Question Jews.” Interfaith conferences are scheduled for March 7, 13 and 20 at the local Jewish cultural center. Special study groups will scrutinize relations between Christians and Jews, the Catholic Church and the State of Israel, the roots of Christianity and the sources of anti-Semitism in Christian churches and their historical consequences.
