Join us for an evening of inspiration and healing as we bring together people of faith to find hope and a shared future in the the midst of toxic divisiveness. This conversation will explore how we can lean in to our respective religious, secular, and spiritual values as we seek to heal toxic polarization through relationship and understanding. This event will highlight the wisdom and experience of Rev. Randy Kyle Callender in conversation with One America Movement and Kaufman Interfaith Institute.The Rev. Randy Kyle Callender, born in Philadelphia to a close-knit Barbadian family, has been deeply rooted in the Episcopal Church from a young age. Randy earned his Bachelor's degree in Communications from Cheyney University before pursuing his Masters of Divinity at The Episcopal Divinity School (EDS) in 2010. Ordained as a transitional deacon in 2010 and later becoming the first African American male priest ordained in the Diocese of Pennsylvania in twenty-five years, Randy's journey led him to serve as Rector at St. Philip’s Episcopal Church in Annapolis, MD, starting in 2012 until 2024. In 2024, he began serving as the Canon for Mission in the Diocese of Maryland. Throughout his ministry, Randy has been deeply involved in various committees and initiatives focused on youth, racial reconciliation, and bridge-building within and beyond the church. He has also lent his expertise to the One America Movement's Faith Over Division program, addressing societal divides in congregations and communities.
Join us in Loosemore Auditorium for a presentation from Rev. Callender followed by a dessert reception.
This event is held in partnership with One America Movement.
