Voices of Reconciliation Speaker Series – Wednesday, October 22nd at 7:00 PM
At the heart of the Gospel is reconciliation. Jesus’ example of being with those in need of loving attention and full acceptance calls us to follow his lead in paying attention: to unreconciled parts of ourselves, to fissures in our families and local communities, to doing our part, with God’s grace, to speak up for peace in our world and care for our planet.
Join us on Wednesday, October 22nd at 7:00 pm, at Saint Mark’s Cathedral for a conversation between the Rev. Jeckonia Okoth, Missioner for Multicultural Ministries for the Episcopal Church in Minnesota, and Dr. Andrew (Andy) Stewart, Theologian in Residence at Saint Mark’s. Jeckonia, a native of Kenya, works with the many Episcopal communities in Minnesota whose root cultures are non-European. He also leads an initiative to create spaces in which spiritual seekers can explore the resources and practices of the Christian tradition. The evening promises to be a lively conversation about the present realities and possible future shape of the church.
