Hi Rod,
Subject: Moreau Lecture: November 4 at 3:30 & 7:30
Dear Colleagues,
In a few weeks, I will make a formal announcement about this year’s Moreau Lecture. However, I thought it might be helpful, if you are still pulling your syllabi together, to let you know something about this year’s lecturer, in case it might nicely overlap with your course.
The 2009-2010 Moreau Lecturer is the Margaret Flatley O’Brien Professor of Catholic Theology at Boston College, Roberto Goizueta. We are privileged to have Professor Goizueta, who has served as president of the Catholic Theological Society of America as well as the Academic Catholic Hispanic Theologians of the United States.
The date is Wednesday, November 4, at 3:30 & 7:30pm in the Burke Auditorium. Professor Goizueta will address theological and ecclesial matters of immigration. His lectures will complement a few events in the coming semester related to this very topic.
As is the tradition with the Moreau Lecture, Professor Goizueta will deliver two lectures. They are as follows:
3:30pm “Christ on the Border: Retrieving a Dangerous Memory”
7:30pm “Life Comes for the Archbishop: The Immigrant as Evangelizer”
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Dan
Rev. Daniel J. Issing, C.S.C.
Assistant Professor of Theology
