Stanton Center Graduates


Dr. Ashley Classen and Mrs. Debra Jones each received a Diploma in Ministry under the Titus Project guidelines at the Stanton Center graduation ceremony on May 15, 2010. The Rt. Rev. James Stanton, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas, and The Very Rev. Kevin Martin, Dean of the Stanton Center, were on hand to give Ashley and Debra their diplomas. The graduation Eucharist was followed by a luncheon in the Great Hall attended by the graduates, family members, and Stanton Center instructors and students. We congratulate our two graduates and look forward to a summer break before classes begin again in August!

Stanton Center classes are finishing up this weekend

With the last weekend of classes now in sight, Stanton Center students are busy studying, reflecting, and writing those final papers. I'm sure everyone is looking forward to our break during June and July before we return in August! We will be saying a fond farewell and congratulations to two of our students who have completed their studies - Ashley Classen and Debra Jones. Both are in the process for ordination (God willing) to the transitional diaconate and eventually to the priesthood. Bishop Stanton will be giving them their diplomas on Saturday at 11:15 in the Cathedral. Everyone is welcome to join us as we give thanks to God for another great year of theological study at the Stanton Center and congratulate Ashley and Debra on their achievement.
