Abstract

The article provides a reading of the theological locus of ecumenism in the documents of the Latin American and Caribbean Episcopate from the ecumenical perspective of the Second Vatican Council. It examines the documents of Medellín (1968), Puebla (1979), Santo Domingo (1992), and Aparecida (2007), seeking elements that help to emphasize the importance of living ecumenism as an evangelical, Trinitarian, and baptismal requirement.
