"Is not Brother Charles...
calling those inspired by his charism, to enter into dialogue
with contemporary cultures and take the route that leads to meeting
other religious traditions, especially Islam? Thus the different
religious communities will truly be "as communities in respectful
dialogue, never more as communities in conflict."
I hope that the spiritual insights of Fr Charles de Foucauld will
continue to enrich the Church's life, thereby witnessing that
love is stronger than all forms of tension and division."
- Pope John Paul II, June 2001
