Vatican II, held from 1962 to 1965, was a pivotal ecumenical council that marked a significant modernization of the Catholic Church. It aimed to address relations with the contemporary world, promoting dialogue with other faiths, and fostering greater lay participation in the Church. The council produced key documents on liturgy, scripture, and the role of the Church, leading to reforms that made the Church more accessible and relevant to modern believers. Its impact continues to influence Catholic doctrine and practice today.
