Eastern Mennonite Seminary presents “Welcoming the Stranger” with Dr. Amy Oden Eastern Mennonite Seminary Let’s Talk Tuesday presents “Welcoming the Stranger” with Dr. Amy Oden. How do communities of faith invite those marginalized and rejected by society into academic spaces and places of worship? Is all of humanity invited into worship, learning and theological discourse? Do we extend grace to those planted and working in our midst? The Office of Spiritual Life invites you to join EMS for a Zoom webinar on Tuesday, April 25 at 6 p.m. EST as we hear Dr. Amy Oden share insights from church history and scripture on “Welcoming the Stranger.” In this session, Dr. Oden will share principles on hospitality from scripture. Then, in a discussion led by seminary professor Dr. David Evans, we will discuss the grace and welcoming embrace the scriptures encourage communities to both receive and give. Eastern Mennonite Seminary, located in Harrisonburg, is an ecumenical seminary rooted in an Anabaptist heritage of peace building and justice where all are welcomed to study, to grow; to lead together. EMS and the Office of Spiritual Life at SU continue to enjoy a fruitful partnership and relationship with each other. Register for the webinar here.
