- Abstract
The article examines the validity of the Communion of Saints as a symbol of reconciliation. The article discusses the role of memory in the understanding of the Communion of Saints, examines the canonization of John Sarkander by Pope John Paul II, and describes the history of honoring Christian and Catholic saints. Statements from the Catholic, Lutheran, Reform, Anglican, and Roman Catholic churches on the honoring of the Communion of Saints are provided, and the effect of Sarkander's canonization on conflict between Catholics and Protestants is examined.
