Save the Date: Lunch Forum on Teaching the Biblical Languages in Sudan

Fr. Joseph Garang Atem, the head of Renk Theological College will speak to us on Thursday, October 11th, from 1:00 -1:50 PM in the Small Dining Room at Virginia Seminary. His topic is "Theology after the War: Visiting Teachers for Renk Theological College, Sudan." Guests are welcome, and may share lunch for about $7.00.

Here is a photo taken this summer by Phoebe R. of herself (right), Sarha, who cared for the team with meals and laundry (center), and Fr. Joseph (left). They are in a tea shop in the Market in Renk, waiting while their tea was being prepared. The Market is within walking distance of Fr. Joseph's compound. The preparation of tea is taken seriously in Renk, and Phoebe reports that it is served hot and delicious. More on tea later...
