Grace Episcopal, Georgetown, Supports Southwestern Students in Worship, Fellowship

Although Southwestern University does not currently have an active Canterbury, Grace Episcopal, Georgetown, supports students as a neighbor to the university.

The church is across the street from the university, and Grace Episcopal the Rt. Rev. Anne Matthews heads up the Canterbury ministry. Dr. Melanie Hoag Bliss is on staff at Southwestern and a member of Grace. Both Matthews and Bliss hope to relaunch the Southwestern Canterbury in spring 2023.

In the meantime, Grace Episcopal reaches out to students and engages through providing evening meals. In 2022 four meals provided food for 180 students. Grace will continue the fellowship in 2023 as the Canterbury is planned and organized.
