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 Dr. Philip
L. Wickeri, Flora Lamson Hewlett Professor of Evangelism and Mission,
San Francisco Theological Seminary. He served as a Missionary in China for
over 20 years. Dr. Wickeri is a member of the Presbytery of the Hudson
River, PC(USA), and the Episcopal Diocese of California.
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.
