Please join the community of 51ÊÓÆµ for the two ceremonies it holds each year to celebrate graduation – an evening service of Holy Eucharist and a formal morning Commencement. These services recognize and celebrate graduating students and award degrees in divinity, religion, counseling, chaplaincy and pastoral care, and spiritual formation and diplomas in Anglican studies and in theological studies.
It was recently announced that 28th Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church the Most Rev. Sean W. Rowe, will preach at the Commencement Exercises. Honorary doctorates will be presented to Bishop Rowe, Rt. Rev. Austin Rios ‘03, Bishop of California, Clarke Heidrick, and the Honorable Lora Livingston, both former Board of Trustee members from 2016-2025.
