A notable quote from the daily news:
"Rev. Canon John L. Peterson, director of the cathedral's Center for Global
Justice and Reconciliation, said U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan had
invited Mr. Khatami to participate in a conference Sept. 5-6 to promote
dialogue. He said the center "thought it would be appropriate to invite the
president to speak on the role that the three Abrahamic faiths can play in
shaping peace. If Mr. Khatami were to get a visa to visit the U.S. he would
speak at the cathedral Sept. 7 on the role of Muslims, Christians and Jews
in improving world understanding."
