Happy New Year!

Stanton Center students and faculty are enjoying the Christmas holidays, recovering from mid-term exams and papers that were due in December, and gearing up for the January class weekend!

Plans for the spring include receiving entries from Episcopal seminarians for the Bishop Donis Patterson Award for Excellence in Evangelistic Preaching. The winner of this award will preach at the Stanton Center Eucharist in April. And on March 7th, the Stanton Center will be co-hosting the 2nd Annual Seminar for New Vestry Members. Last year over 100 vestry and clergy from across the Diocese attended this informative seminar.

Plans are already underway for classes that will begin in August of 2009, and 2009 catalogs will be available in March. Meanwhile, current students had such a great time at our fall retreat that they are asking to have another retreat sometime this spring. Anyone interested in helping plan the next retreat should contact Deacon Nancy or Rosemary Trei.
