SACRED HEART UNIVERSITY TO HOST LECTURE ON SAINT PAUL BY ARCHBISHOP  DEMETRIOS

NEW YORK ? Archbishop Demetrios of America returns to Sacred Heart
University in Fairfield, Conn., to present a lecture on ?St. Paul, the
Apostle of Joy,? Wednesday, Dec. 9, at 2 p.m. The lecture will take
place at Sacred Heart University?s Chapel of the Holy Spirit and will
be open to the public. SHU bestowed an honorary ?Doctor of Humane
Letters? degree to Archbishop Demetrios in 2005.

?St. Paul, the Apostle of Joy? is the culmination of a special
yearlong observance of the bi-millennial anniversary of the birth of
St. Paul marked by both the Catholic and Orthodox Churches. It is
presented in celebration of Sacred Heart University?s new Chapel of
the Holy Spirit, which was dedicated Sept. 27, and to honor the 10th
Enthronement Anniversary of the Archbishop.
The event is cosponsored by The Human Journey, the Cardinal Spidlik
Center for Ecumenical Understanding, and Orthodox Clergy Fellowships
and the congregations they represent. A reception will follow the
lecture, hosted by Sacred Heart University and the Ladies Philoptochos
organization of the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church of Bridgeport, Conn.

Sacred Heart University, the second-largest Catholic university in New
England, offers more than 40 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral
programs on its main campus in Fairfield, Connecticut, and satellites
in Connecticut, Luxembourg and Ireland and has approximately 6,000
students in attendance.
