* Announcement: Worship service considers "Reflections on Baseball"

March 28, 2008

Perkins School of Theology will host a worship service entitled “Reflections on Baseball” in Perkins Chapel at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday, April 2.

Speakers include Dr. Mark W. Stamm, associate professor of Christian Worship at Perkins and Dr. Kathleen Sullivan Porter, Academic Advisor in Dedman College, Southern Methodist University.

In addition to being lifelong baseball fans, Doctors Stamm and Sullivan are members of the Society for American Baseball Research.

As a graduate school of theology, at times we are also a liturgical testing ground; “Reflections on Baseball” stands in this experimental mode.

Perkins School of Theology is one of five University-related official schools of theology of The United Methodist Church.

This service is open to the public.
