Tuesday June 23, 7:00 PM “Catholics as Citizens and Disciples” Rev. J. Bryan Hehir. In light of Catholic social vision and moral teaching, how do Catholics as citizens and the church institutionally relate to major themes and issues facing American society?

Friday July 10, 7:00 PM “The Church in the 21st Century:  Beyond the Ghetto and Assimilation” Father Radcliffe will explore how we can have a lively Catholic culture which neither locks out the modern world, nor assimilates us to it, and what that means for our understanding of doctrine and morals etc.

Timothy Radcliffe, OP is a Dominican friar of the English Province, and former Master of the Order of Preachers from 1992-2001, the only member of the English Province to have held that office since the Order’s founding in 1216.  A renowned and highly sought after speaker, he was the 2007 winner of The Michael Ramsey Prize for theological writing for his book “What is the Point of Being a Christian?”

Tuesday August 4, 7:00 PM "Leadership: Lay, Political and Church. Reflections by a Catholic committed to action in the public square." Justice Burke will examine the ties of faith as a life-long Catholic amidst the shifting ideological plates for those holding elective office, examining the roots of systemic institutional failure by some church leaders to stay truthful to the faithful and how Catholics can responsibly challenge such moral failures.

Justice Burke was elected to the Illinois Appellate Court, First District, in 1996, having previously being appointed to that bench in 1995. Justice Burke is special counsel to the Illinois Governor for Child Welfare Services, founder of the Special Olympics in Chicago, and recipient of over 50 awards including Crain's 100 most influential women and Lawyer of the Year Award. She is on the Board of DePaul University. Justice Burke is widely accredited as a lead reformer of the Cook County Juvenile Justice System. She has previously served in the State of Illinois on the Court of Claims; the Trial Bar, Federal District Court; the US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit; and the Federal Court, Northern District of Illinois. Justice Burke was the first chair of The National Review Board for the Protection of Children and Young People established by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
