To officially change the name “Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul” to “Feast of the Vocation of Saint Paul” is the the petition that the Secretariat of the Ecumenical Activity addressed in June 2022 to the Prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments of the Catholic Church, Monsignor Arthur Roche, and to the secretary, Monsignor Vittorio Francesco Viola. The request, approved by the Assembly of the Interfaith Association for Ecumenism and Dialogue starting from the Jewish-Christian dialogue gathered in Florence on 24 April 2022, was also signed by 164 signatories among bishops, theologians, liturgists, biblical scholars, scholars, priests, religious, and people of Protestant and Jewish faith.

We share with our readers the answer that the biblical scholar Don Vicenzo Vitale, director of the Italian weekly Credere, gave in this regard, addressing the question in a thoughtful and articulate way.
