A Lenten Series on Mission in the Episcopal Tradition

When many Americans think of missions and missionaries, they think of a pattern that was common in the 19th and early 20th century--missionaries from Europe and North America headed to Africa, Asia, and Latin America with the intent of establishing new churches that closely resembled those that they had left behind. That is, however, only one pattern of missionary outreach; there are many others.

During a series of five Wednesdays in Lent (February 24, March 3, 10, 17, 24), the Rev. Dr. Robert W. Prichard, Professor Emeritus at the Virginia Theological Seminary and Priest Associate at Christ Church Parish, will lead a series of five reflections on the history of missions in the Anglican/Episcopal tradition. These reflections will all start at 7:00 pm and be available on zoom.

The individual topics that Bob will address will be:

These presentations by Bob will be followed by a time for discussion and will then close with the reading of Compline (Book of Common Prayer, 217-35).

Participants may see some unfamiliar faces on the zoom meeting. Members of St. George’s Church in Arlington will also be invited to participate.
