    Mar 31, 2024

    April 26, 2024 8:30-2:30pm (Central) Hybrid offering: Online and In-Person at Perkins School of Theology, Dallas, TX (Free online for CPE students; $10 online otherwise; $30 in person registration) The ACPE International Relations Committee is one of the sponsors for this upcoming Healing from Racism and Oppression Conference taking place at Perkins School of Theology and offered online on Friday, April 26th from 8:30-2:30pm (Central). One of the two speakers is Fr. Michael Lapsley, Director for the Institute for Healing of Memories in Cape Town, S. Africa, and he was a plenary speaker at the International Congress for Pastoral Care and Counseling in S. Africa in July 2023. Four ACPE educators were present at the congress and we all were deeply moved and inspired by him and thought at the time how much we’d love for the rest of ACPE to hear him, too. We are so pleased that he has agreed to come to Dallas and be a part of this incredible conference along with Sandy Ovalle, Director of Campaigns and Mobilizing for Sojourners in Washington, D.C. Both of these folks are incredible social justice leaders in our world today. We hope you will attend and bring your CPE students.
