Fall Holy Conversations
Holy Conversations are held on Second Sundays to discuss how to bring our Episcopal faith to bear on current events.
Sept. 8: Faith and Politics
Representative James Talarico / District 50, Texas House of Representatives
State Representative James Talarico, who is also a seminary student, will lead us in a Holy Conversation about the special role of people of faith and good conscience can play in our current political climate. He will also help us examine the ways in which congregations like ours can work in partnership with our government – as caring, Christian citizens.
Oct. 13: Canterbury Tales: Cathedral Life and The Changing Landscape of Christian Faith in the World
The Very Reverend Dr. David Monteith / Dean of Canterbury
Dean Monteith will join us (via Zoom) for a conversation moderated by St. David's Rector Fr. Chuck Treadwell
Nov. 10: Advancing the Future through High-Quality Education
Dr Rosamaria Murillo, CEO
Dr. Leah Newkirk Meunier, Chief of Development and Communications / El Buen Samaritano
This Holy Conversation will include a presentation by Dr. Rosamaria Murillo and Dr. Leah Newkirk Meunier of El Buen Samaritano, entitled Avanzando Futuros (Advancing the Future) through High-Quality Education. Austin’s economic prosperity depends on a highly educated workforce. However, the quality of a child’s education often depends on their skin color and zip code. El Buen Samaritano is taking bold steps to level the playing field for the youth in our community. Join Dr. Murillo and Dr. Meunier as they explore the challenges facing Central Texas’ education system and how El Buen is leading innovative solutions to create an equitable future for all our neighbors.
