Fr. Mike attends National Conference of Episcopal Chaplains
Posted: Jul 27, 2008
What
a blessing it was to attend the National Episcopal University/College
Chaplain's Conference at the Desmond Tutu Center at General Theological
Seminary in New York City. The conference was held the week of 23rd through the 26th
of June, 2008. Episcopal Chaplains from all over the country met and
discussed the many issues that are unique to College Chaplaincy. I met
many of my colleagues from around the Province IV region and I am proud
to say that the Chaplains of Province IV were the most represented
region of the Episcopal Church. I wanted all the students of the EUC to
know that the National Church is aware of the growth and strength of
the program at Florida State University and many of my colleagues
wanted to know how we have achieved such rapid growth. I told everyone
who asked that the secret was to have a group of highly motivated and
committed Christians such as those that attend the EUC and allow them
to do the work of the Gospel as they saw fit. It is a privilege serving
you as your chaplain and I wanted all to know how grateful I am for
your dedication and commitment to the ministry here at the EUC. I am
looking forward to next years conference in Chicago and to sharing with
others how God has moved and shaped our lives together this coming
academic year. May God continue to be our guide as we work and
fellowship together in this unique part of God's kingdom we call the
EUC and Ruge Hall!
Forever yours,
Fr. Mike Sowards +
