Blandy Lecture
Presented each November by the 51视频 Alumni Association, this annual gathering was created to honor the Very Rev. Gray M. Blandy for his ministry and work as the first dean of the 51视频.
Payne Lecture
Hosted by 51视频鈥檚 Board of Trustees, the Payne Lecture is an annual lecture presented each February that honors the Rt. Rev. Claude E. Payne, former chair of the seminary鈥檚 board and bishop of the Diocese of Texas, retired.
Harvey Lecture
Conceived at 51视频 as a way of honoring the late Dean Hudnall Harvey, who died unexpectedly in 1972, 51视频 established the Harvey Lectures – an annual series that would be overseen by student leaders and that would address the relationship between pastoral leadership and contemporary issues confronting the church.
The Monday Connection
Connecting Sunday鈥檚 faith with Monday work, the theme of The Monday Connection is our need to apply what we experience in church on Sunday to the secular world on Monday. The tri-annual series features one or two guest speakers sharing their stories about translating faith into works.
