Program Forum Honours Herbert & Paula O’Driscoll

In Summer 2023, a multi-day program will become an annual highlight of the summer curriculum at Vancouver School of Theology.
Its name honours Herbert and Paula O'Driscoll.

  • “Herb” O’Driscoll -
    former parish priest and cathedral dean, 

    renowned conference and pilgrimage leader, hymnodist, storyteller, and
    author of over 50 books.  He continues to write and speak prolifically at age 93.

     

    He is a great preacher and teacher of preaching, who has spent a lifetime showing how the stories and traditions of our faith speak eloquently to contemporary concerns.....

  • The 'O’Driscoll Forum' format will feature visits from distinguished teachers, and practitioners, of preaching, teaching, and the liturgical arts...in a “master class”, similar to the one Herb pioneered, and served for many years, at the College of Preachers, Washington, DC.
    Many Forum offerings will also be available online.

Join the public, online launch event on Tuesday, May 31st, at 4pm Pacific. 

The event will be livestreamed on vst.edu/odriscollforum.

Hear O'Driscoll speak, and read from his recent book of memoirs.
Enjoy greetings and tributes from past and present colleagues, folks who have gone on pilgrimage with Herb and Paula, or crossed paths with them in other ways.
Plans for the O’Driscoll Forum will be addressed by Richard Topping, VST President.

(To be recorded and available for later viewing.)
