Hendrix College Offers 2021 Willson Lecture Online
The Rev. Matt Miofsky will deliver the annual Hendrix College Willson Lecture, which is free and open to the public each year. This year, for the first time, the Willson Lecture will be broadcast from the “Hdx Chapel” Facebook page, www.facebook.com/hdxchapel, on Monday, April 12 at 6:30 p.m. Miofsky is the founding and lead pastor of The Gathering United Methodist Church, a multi-site congregation in the Saint Louis area. The Willson Lectures were established at Hendrix in 1956 for the purpose of bringing outstanding speakers to discuss spiritual values, sound family relations, and vital issues confronting the world today.
