Catholicism and Orthodoxy are collaborating to commemorate the 2000th birthday of St. Paul over the course of the next year. Damascus is the city where the conversion of Paul took place and will be the site of many of the activities. Damascus is also the place where the Melkite (Catholic) and Orthodox Patriarchs of Antioch currently reside.

It also touches briefly on issues of Arab Christian and Muslim relations in the Middle East.
