The 175th Academic year at Eden Seminary opens! On Tuesday, September 3, 2024, new and returning students, faculty, staff, friends of the Seminary and congregation members gathered to celebrate the opening of Eden’s 2024-2025 academic year.
Eden welcomed students beginning their degree programs both in the spring and fall of 2024. Here’s a snapshot of this entering class.
Rev. Traci Blackmon preached powerfully on the theme of “Messy Miracles.” Before beginning, she reflected, [I will be] “speaking into the spirits of those who sit where I sat 18 years ago in a place that shaped so much of my ministry and my unshakeable trust and persistent unearthing of an inexhaustible God.” That prayer did not disappoint.
