About the Event
To kick off our Fall Civic Engagement series, we welcome The Rev'd Corbet Clark, historian, Episcopal priest, and a teacher of history and religion for 30 years. Corbet will walk us through how the Episcopal Church has been in relationship with American power (formally and informally) since the inception of the nation. He will guide us to consider what it means for us to act today as civically engaged Episcopalians. (Hybrid)
