Fellowship of Saint Moses the Black 2023 Conference
The mission of the Fellowship of Saint Moses the Black is to equip Christians for the ministry of reconciliation to Christ. The 30th annual Ancient Christianity conference will be in person in Houston, TX at Saint George Orthodox Church on October 13-15, 2023. The conference will be live streamed via the Zoom platform.
This year’s keynote speaker will be His Grace Bishop Gerasim of Fort Worth (OCA). Bishop Thomas of Oakland and Charleston (Antiochian) will also be attending. Abbess Katherine Weston will give the President’s Address and we will hear talks from Father Paul Abernathy, Father John Finley, Father Moses Berry, Father Alexii Altschul, and others.
On Saturday, October 15 at 10:00 AM, the Divine Liturgy will be celebrated, premiering an all-new setting, the “Jubilee Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom.” The Liturgy was composed by Abbess Katherine Weston and will be conducted by Dr. Zhanna Lehmann. All the choral pieces are inspired by African American Spirituals.
The program consists of not only lectures, but also interactive breakout sessions and cultural exchange. The aim of the conference is to address the spiritual as well as practical aspects of the ministry of reconciliation to Christ.
