VST Somerville Lecture 2025 | Solidarity Forever: Faith and Politics - Sara Miles

The Vancouver School of Theology is excited to announce that Sara Miles, Founder and Director of The Food Pantry, is the keynote speaker for VST’s 2025 Somerville Lecture. In addition, Sara is an author, the former Director of Ministry at St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church, and she preaches and leads workshops around the world. The Somerville Lecture 2025 will address the spiritual, practical, and political implications of solidarity, at a time when communities—including faith communities— are painfully divided. Like us, the people of the Hebrew Bible and the Gospels live in relationship with God. And, like us, they live in complex human networks of unavoidably political power relationships—colonized and invader; subject and ruler; worker and owner; soldier and prisoner. In the current moment, what does solidarity mean for all our relationships? And how do we faithfully confront the political challenges we face?
