Dear John

You are invited to attend the annual David Goodourn Lecture on the evening of 26 April 2022. As a partner in the Centre for Theology and Justice, Church Action on Poverty helps to organise this lecture, exploring the centrality of social justice within the church.

26 April 2022, 7:30pm – 9:00pm, online

Professor Mario I Aguilar (Professor Of Religion and Politics and Director of the Centre for Religion and Politics at the University of St Andrews) will speak on the theme 'After Pestilence'. 

This lecture will challenge the plausibility of an ecclesial isolation through the examination of social borders, social inclusion/exclusion, and the experience of the materialistic and the metaphysical today. Where are the borders that need to be embraced by the Church? Where are the borders of theology and social justice? Is God’s option for the poor and the marginalised our own option?

Best wishes
