EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a momentous gathering of two esteemed religious leaders in Birmingham. The image captures the Bishop of Birmingham, the Rt Rev Laurence Brown, alongside the Archbishop of Birmingham, the Most Rev. George Dwyer. This historic snapshot was taken during a press conference held at St Catherine Roman Catholic Church on Bristol Street on January 24th, 1972. The occasion for this meeting with the press was to announce and promote an upcoming service at the church as part of the Week of Prayer for Unity in 1972. Both Bishop Brown and Archbishop Dwyer were deeply committed to fostering unity among Christians in their community. Dr. Patrick Dwyer, also known as G. P. Dwyer or George Patrick Dwyer, served as the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Birmingham during that time period. Their presence together symbolizes not only their shared dedication to their faith but also highlights their collaborative efforts towards promoting harmony within different Christian denominations. This photograph is a testament to these religious leaders' commitment to bridging divides and working towards common goals despite any differences they may have had doctrinally or institutionally. It serves as a powerful reminder that unity can be achieved through dialogue and understanding. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints from archives belonging to Birmingham Post and Mail Archive, this image offers us a glimpse into an important moment in history where faith leaders came together for a greater purpose beyond themselves - promoting peace and unity within their diverse community.
