Clergy Day 2022
2022-06-20 10:00 - 14:00 | St. Paul’s Cathedral, 2728 Sixth Ave, San Diego, CA, 92103, United States
Of course, in times like these, clergy work hard on preaching about pressing social issues in a politically divided world. Bishop Susan is excited to invite you to a special event to help you think about how to preach on difficult social topics:
Diocese of San Diego Clergy Day with Mark Jefferson
Monday, June 20, 2022, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
“Preaching in a Time of Social Crisis:
Strategies and Approaches to Difficult Topics”
St. Paul’s Cathedral, San Diego
Registration Required: $15
Speaker: The Rev. Mark Jefferson, PhD
REGISTER HERE
This class will explore the context for our modern proclamation and help preachers construct a proactive approach to community formation through developing an intentional arc to the preaching life. Preachers will leave this class with a framework for reimagining their preaching and an approach to attending to modern issues. There will be sufficient time for questions.
Our Clergy Day leader will be The Rev. Mark Jefferson, Assistant Professor of Homiletics at Virginia Theological Seminary. Dr. Jefferson’s preaching, scholarship, and engagement with popular culture outline his commitment to be a public theologian. The critical engagement of the American social imagination and African socio-political enfranchisement and empowerment are areas of concentration for Dr. Jefferson’s life and work. Dr. Jefferson is an internationally respected preacher and teacher of preachers, and has been inducted into the Martin Luther King, Jr. Board of Preachers at Morehouse College.
In this time of social crisis and deep political division, please don’t miss this opportunity to think deeply about how you can speak to the issues of the day. Please register today. Your $15 fee covers registration and lunch. As a bonus, you will be able to see the cathedral’s new space! Parking will be available.

Season of Creation 2022
2022-09-04 18:00 - 20:00 | St. Paul’s Cathedral, 2728 Sixth Ave, San Diego, CA, 92103, United States
I have heard their cry. I know their sufferings. Come, now! I will send you. I will be with you.
Exodus 3: 1-12
The burning bush is the symbol for the Season of Creation 2022. Today, Creation cries out as forests crackle, animals flee, and people are forced to migrate due to the fires of injustice. In contrast, the fire that called to Moses as he tended the flock on Mt. Horeb did not consume or destroy the bush. This flame of the Spirit revealed God’s presence. This holy fire affirmed that God heard the cries of all who suffered, and promised to be with us as we followed in faith to our deliverance from injustice.
A Word from the General Convention in 2022
The 80th General Convention of the Episcopal Church recognized climate change as “an all-encompassing social crisis and moral emergency that impacts and interconnects every aspect of pastoral concern including health, poverty, employment, racism, social justice, and family life and that can only be addressed by a Great Work involving every sector of society, including the Church.”
