A Lenten Message from the Interim Dean

Ash Wednesday almost slipped by me last week, and now we are in the first full week of Lent.

I want you to know that the Spring 2010 Semester is off to a good start.  We all are very  busy, student morale is high, and our partnership with Trinity Lutheran Seminary here in Columbus, Ohio, continues to flourish.

This particular term, I continue to oversee our field education program, as well as team teaching “The Care of Souls” with Dr. Brad Binau of Trinity Lutheran Seminary.  Professor Jason Fout is teaching Modern Anglican Theology for Bexley Hall and Theological Anthropology for Trinity Lutheran Seminary and Bexley Hall.  Dr. Elise Feyerherm continues to lead our fine Anglican Formation Program, as well as leading our new “Liturgics III: Liturgical Practicum” course, and teaching an elective on “The Daily Prayer of the Church”.  I salute my colleagues for their scholarly excellence, gifted teaching, and generosity of spirit.

Formation in Community

At Bexley Hall, discernment is a matter of community.  Every Friday, we gather for a morning of Anglican formation, praying together and learning about the richness of our tradition.

On Thursday evenings, Bexley Hall hosts a community dinner, open to the faculty, staff, and students of Bexley Hall and Trinity Lutheran Seminary.  Over food and drink, we share in fellowship and conversation.

A Place for Families Too

Whether you are single, partnered, or married; with or without children, there is a place for you at Bexley Hall.  We can provide several different kinds of on-campus housing, in a quaint, safe residential neighborhood with excellent schools and a reasonable cost of living.

Look around the Prospective Students section of our site to learn more about Bexley Hall and Columbus, Ohio.

Saint Helena Icon

Saint Helena

The Bexley Hall class of 2008 recently commissioned the writing of an icon depicting Saint Helena, the namesake of Saint Helena Chapel's at Bexley Hall.

 

Called to Common Mission

Since 1998, Bexley Hall has been in partnership with Trinity Lutheran Seminary, sharing facilities, resources, and faculty.  Additionally, Anglican students attend an Anglican Formation course for two or the three years of the M.Div. The Episcopal Church and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America are in full communion and share worship, clergy, and mission.

The liturgies for worship are distinct (not hybrid blends), but both denominations attend each others’ worship. Because of our partnership with Trinity Lutheran, the creative possibilities—especially for Anglicans who anticipate working in historically Lutheran geographic areas, or who want a very solid academic AND formational basis—are many.
