Friday, September 8, 2000

Please join us in beautiful Derby City this fall for a day of spirited exchanges of perspectives on the forces that are reshaping the Church, posing both challenges and opportunities. Keynote speaker Dr. Gregory Holmes Singleton, Professor of History at Northeastern Illinois University, will introduce the questions that have perplexed the Church from its beginnings to the present: authority, models of ecclesia, the role of women, the influences of secular culture, and other timely subjects. To date, other presenters include the Most Reverend Raphael J. Adams, Vicar General of the ORCCNA; the Right Reverend R. Stewart Wood, IX Episcopal Bishop of Michigan; and the Reverend Anthony R. Kosnik, canon law scholar, author, and Director of the Pastoral Ministry Program at Marygrove College in Detroit. Registration for this unique, ecumenical event is open to clergy and laity who are concerned about the current state of the Church and its future. The registration fee is $25 and includes lunch. Deadline for registration is Friday, August 18, 2000. For more information and/or registration, e-mail us at info@orccna.org.
