'Crossing to the otherside of the lake', in a civil sense, means leaving behind wars,divisions, and misery, and opting for peace, reconciliation anddevelopment. Yet, this, implies a passage which takes place inthe conscience, in the attitudes and intentions of people. Hereis where the contribution of religious communities becomesimportant. And that is why I have joined with the Evangelicaland Muslim communities, sharing prayers and a commitment forpeace." (AGI). .
