Ecumenism Certificate

Friends:

Last Friday I was very happy to participate in the Graduation Ceremony of the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg. While I often get to Gettysburg to visit, I rarely am able to attend graduation. It was very enjoyable.

I was particularly happy to be able to present the Consortium Ecumenism Certificate to Susan Beck. Susan had been my student in a course on ecumenism at Gettysburg. She went on to finish the 12 graduate credits. She also went on to win the national essay contest of the Lutheran Ecumenical Officers [the LERN network] and to revive the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity Service at her Internment Placement. She is quite an effective ecumenist. Susan is in her second career--an encouragement to all of us who have passed 45!

Peace,
John
