EPISCOPAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO ROMAN CATHOLIC STUDIES
Works by two Episcopal priests will be included in a series of studies of religious phenomena in Latin America, entitled Sondeos, published by the Center of Intercultural Documentation in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
The first of these is an examination of concubinage in Central America carried out by the Rev. Greer Taylor in cooperation with a Roman Catholic priest, the Rev. Ramnon Vega. The second work is that of the Rev. William Wipfler. Written as a master's thesis at the Union Theological Seminary, New York, the work is an analysis of recent church history in Dominican Republic and the problems confronting Christian efforts in that republic.
