The Church of the Brethren webcast series at http://www.cobwebcast.bethanyseminary.edu/ is offering interactive live video webcasting from the 300th Anniversary academic conference on Oct. 11-13.
The conference titled “Honoring a Legacy, Embracing a Future: 300 Years of Brethren Heritage,” is sponsored by the Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies at Elizabethtown (Pa.) College. It begins Thursday evening Oct. 11, continues with Friday morning, afternoon, and evening sessions on Oct. 12, and concludes with a Saturday morning session on Oct. 13.
