Reverend Ewing-Merrill will engage us in a conversation about the spiritual roots of the climate crisis - and the work The BTS Center is doing to advance a spiritual response.
The Reverend serves as Executive Director of The BTS Center in Portland which seeks to catalyze spiritual imagination, with enduring wisdom, for transformative faith leadership. Originally from Midcoast Maine, Allen is a graduate of the University of Maine and of Boston University School of Theology, and he is continuing his studies in a Doctor of Ministry program through Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, DC. He has not only served as a pastor for over 20 years but has extended his work to include experience in advocacy, direct action, and faith-based organizing around issues of social justice. A favorite quote he often uses comes from environmentalist Gus Speth: "The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed, and apathy.”
Lewiston/Auburn Senior College is excited to welcome Reverend Allen Ewing-Merrill as our next Food for Thought speaker.
