Trinity Institute at St. James'

“Listen for a Change” is the 45th annual Trinity Institute conference, sponsored by Trinity Wall Street, an Episcopal parish in New York City. The Diocese of Southern Virginia is proud to make recordings this year's conference available in Southern Virginia.

This year’s Trinity Institute conference focuses on racial justice and is for anyone who is interested in a theological perspective on racial justice and a fuller understanding of present realities and ways to transform them.

This event will take place in the St. James Parish House, located directly behind St. James Church at Front Street & Drummondtown Rd in Accomac. Free parking is available across from the church.

Lunch will be provided; an offering will be taken to help offset the cost of our meal.
