Dear Colleague,
We are writing to remind you about the global chaplains' conference sponsored by the International Association of Chaplains in Higher Education (IACHE). From June 25 to June 29, 2012 in New Haven, Connecticut, we will be welcoming religious professionals who serve college and university campuses to "Mosaics in Motion: Spiritual Leadership in a Multifaith World. This theme will be explored by looking at the core values of:
* religious literacy
* radical hospitality
* service with thoughtful reflection
* creating and sharing sacred space
It is our hope to be as inclusive as possible. Therefore, we enthusiastically welcome participation from a wide range of global religious and spiritual traditions. We are prepared to offer financial assistance to chaplains from developing countries in the form of scholarships to offset registration fees. We are also able to offer a limited number of scholarships to current seminarians who are interested in pursuing ministry in higher education. Please aid our efforts by forwarding this email.
For more information about this unique professional development experience including information on fees, scholarships, important dates, travel, accommodations and session proposal submissions, please visit our website, www.globalchaplains2012.com. Please check this site often as we are frequently updating it. We have also attached a brochure for distribution to colleagues who may not have received this email.
Please note that the early bird registration rate ends February 15, 2012. We look forward to seeing you in New Haven next June!
Sending you all good wishes,
Sharon M.K. Kugler
Chair of Global 2012 Conference Committee
