[SVS Communications / Yonkers, NY] — Dr. Rowan Williams began his New York City tour this past week with duties related to his role as Archbishop of Canterbury, but ended it by demonstrating his academic acumen and continued interest in the Orthodox Christian faith. On Saturday, January 30, 2010, the Anglican archbishop delivered the 27th annual Father Alexander Schmemann Memorial Lecture – this year titled “Theology and Contemplative Calling: The Image of Humanity in the Philokalia” – and received an honorary doctoral degree on the campus of St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary.
During his visit, Dr. Williams also attended Divine Liturgy and had a lively and frank discussion with the theological faculty of St. Vladimir’s at a private brunch. After the Divine Liturgy, Metropolitan Jonah, primate of the Orthodox Church in America (OCA), and the Anglican archbishop both publically expressed their desire for a deeper personal friendship and their hope for deeper understanding and cooperation between their respective communions. Four hundred people attended the lecture and ceremony, distinguished by an episcopal presence from both the Orthodox and Anglican faiths.

Recently St. Vladimir’s established a green initiative to provide an Orthodox response to the growing ecological crisis of our day, and The Economic Report segment spotlights this effort.
Fr. John Behr, Dean of SVS:
Theology and education for ministry are not simply academic pursuits. An Orthodox theological education is far more encompassing and demanding than that offered in a typical institution of higher learning. Members of the seminary community—faculty, staff, and students alike— are challenged to respect and value each member of our richly diverse community as a unique human person created in the image and likeness of God.
Fr. Chad Hatfield, Chancellor of SVS:
Orthodox Christianity ecologically involves the relationship with both the inhabited earth, the human community, and the natural eco-system in which we live. We are implementing sustainable practices across our twelve-acre campus, exploring alternative energy sources, and caring for God’s creation.
