Please join us for a 35th anniversary celebration
and dialogue on the Confession of 1967, a confession rich in the spirit of
social justice and reconciliation. The Witherspoon Society is focusing on
the Confession's challenge and relevance to the issues facing our church
today. Building on a national conference held in February, the Society is
now sponsoring regional workshops across the country to further reflect on
this vital document of our tradition. Attendees will be challenged to
consider how progressive Presbyterians can reclaim confessionally the
denomination's social justice agenda.
Keynote speaker will be the Reverend
Bruce Cameron, who is Pastor of Peace Presbyterian Church in Eugene,
Oregon. A Presbyterian minister since 1978, he has worked in installed and
interim pastorates in Oregon and Montana. He has been involved in numerous
peacemaking and social justice ministries since the 1960's. He currently
serves on the Leadership Team of Presbyterians Affirming Reproductive
Options and the Board of the Presbyterian Health, Education, and Welfare
Association. In addition to his seminary degree, Bruce holds a Masters
degree from the Rutgers University Graduate School of Social Work in
Social Policy Analysis. And, he holds an honors diploma from
Western Culinary Institute in Portland, Oregon.
Facilitator will be the Reverend Kent
Winters-Hazelton, pastor of Claremont Presbyterian Church, Claremont,
CA. Winters-Hazelton is lead strategist and member-at-large of the
Executive Committee of the Witherspoon Society.
The cost for the event is $20
including dinner.
