The Gonzaga Lecture Series was launched in the mid- 1990s with a view to providing a forum for exploration and discussion of themes in contemporary Theology and society. They typically take place during Lent and over the years we have been lucky to welcome a range of speakers from across the globe.
For the first time, the 2021 lectures will be held virtually. The theme of the lectures is 'Keeping faith in a COVID world’. Challenges and positive responses to the pandemic.'
We are thrilled to welcome the following guest speakers:
Fr Porter is Director of the Jesuit Institute and Provincial’s delegate for primary and secondary education. He is also a former Head Master of St Aloysius’ College and Wimbledon College.
Dr Theodora Hawksley studied theology at Durham University and Edinburgh University, specialising first in ecclesiology and social science before moving into the area of peacebuilding and Catholic social teaching. She is one of the editors of Peacebuilding and the Arts (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019) and author of Peacebuilding and Catholic Social Teaching (Notre Dame University Press, 2020). She leads theology and social justice programming at the London Jesuit Centre.
Jesuit priest and former chaplain at University of Oxford, he now finds himself co-ordinating the spirituality life and work of the Jesuits in Britain.
The lectures will be held virtually and you must register with an email address to receive the link for each lecture.
