Cyril and Islam
February 29, 2008
Sister Pamela Smith, SS.C.M.
(Members of an SSCM Centennial sub-committee will be contributing reflections for our website twice a month, once a month during the summer, from now until our 2009 celebration.)
Mohammed had been dead a mere 220 years, and Islam was still a relatively new religion, when St. Cyril (still known as Constantine) was sent on a mission to the Saracens and, shortly thereafter, to the Khazars. In both cases, his mission was evangelization, but he was also on missions of diplomacy.
