Hartford International University collaborates with faith communities to foster connection and to offer educational experiences provided by their esteemed faculty. St. Patrick-St. Anthony Church has been invited to partner with HIU to present several opportunities to engage with internationally renowned scholar Dr. Amy-Jill Levine.
Dr. Amy-Jill Levine is a distinguished scholar and teacher in New Testament and Jewish Studies. She is the first Jew to teach New Testament at Rome’s Pontifical Biblical Institute. In 2021, she was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
On the weekend of March 21-22, we will offer multiple faith formation programs to interact with Dr. Levine. “AJ”, as she is known, works to counter biblical interpretations that exclude and oppress. The biblical scholarship explored may be new to you, leading to fresh insights, reflections, and inspiration.
The gatherings will include time for questions along with refreshments.
These programs are free and will be at the Franciscan Center for Urban Ministry, 285 Church Street, Hartford CT, free parking is across the street in the Saints Lot.
