Islam: What Catholics Should Know
Catholic Update: Islam, What Catholics Should Know
This issue of Catholic Update takes a look at the founding of the Islamic faith and presents a summary of its five pillars. "The Muslims we hear most about in the news are fundamentalists who in no way represent the Muslims living in our communities," Funk writes. "Our challenge as Catholics is to get to know more about our Muslim brothers and sisters."

Mary Margaret Funk, OSB, a member of Our Lady of Grace Monastery, is a writer and advocate for interreligious dialogue. Former prioress of her religious community, Sister Mary Margaret served as the executive director of Monastic Interreligious Dialogue and now directs the School of Lectio Divina at Benedict Inn.
Our parishioners took every copy we had of Islam: What Catholics Should Know. It moved us to rethink how we felt about the Islamic faith. We’re certainly having more conversations about Islam at our parish than before we had this Catholic Update from Liguori. It’s helping us to build community.
Catholic Update is simple and easy to read, so you get more out of it. It’s great that Liguori has this kind of material.
