| Description: | A day of historic import is written on the Church calendar at Vatican City. Dr. Arthur Michael Ramsey, Archbishop of Canterbury, and Pope Paul VI confer in the Sistine Chapel on steps that might be taken to bring Roman Catholics and Anglicans closer together. , VO narrator says that the four centuries-old schism between Anglicanism and Catholicism that separated Catholics and English churchmen occurred in the 16th century and never since have the two church’s been so close in Ecumenical recognition of each other.
