Dear Friends,
 
We are delighted to welcome Revd Dr Boniface Carroll to Cambridge on Friday 30 June for the third IOCS Lecture Day of the year (6.30-8.00 pm BST). Father Boniface will deliver a lecture on the theme of ‘Meditations on the Incarnation: Humanity, Society, and the Church’. The event will take place physically in Cambridge, at Wesley House (top floor, room 31), though Zoom participation will also be possible. All are welcome to attend.
