Rests Vital Place in Spirituality and the Work of Justice

Underhill Lecture in Spirituality
St. Mary of Magdala Celebration
Pyne Memorial Presentation
This annual summer lecture was initiated in 2001 by the Boston College Institute of Religious Education and Pastoral Ministry (IREPM) and has been continued by the School of Theology and Ministry (STM). The lecture is named for the early 20thCentury mystic, Evelyn Underhill (1874-1941), a married laywoman in ministry. She was the first woman invited to give a series of theological lectures at Oxford and the first to become a retreat leader in the Anglican Church. Widely recognized for her classic textMysticism, a comprehensive study of religious experience, Underhill authored numerous works on the Christian spiritual life.
These lectures were not video recorded.
