The Second Vatican Council articulated a paradigm shift in the church’s self-understanding and her relationship with the people of other faiths. The Council opened a new vision of the Church and her mission in the world. Against this background this article dialogue with the post-conciliar understanding of the Church’s mission and the vision of late Kurien Kunnumpuram concerning the Church’s relationship with the adherents of other faiths. In a world where intellectual arguments and scientifi c proofs versus the divine truths, genuine Christian witness based on faith experience play a vital role to convey the gospel message. For Kunnumpuram, the Church is the home for all people and religions. As he acknowledges the salvifi c meaning of other religions, he encourages Christians to appreciate the positive values in those religions. Therefore, this article attempt to respond to the views of Kunnumpuram Kurien, in the light of Evangelii Nuntiandi, Redemptoris Missio and Ecclesia in Asia.
