About the lecture
Professor Beale is a trustee of A Rocha UK and the author of 101 Curious Tales of East African Birds (2023), a beautiful and fascinating book.
His lecture brings together friends and colleagues from St Augustine’s College of Theology and St John’s Waterloo as we launch our new project, Discipleship for a Planet in Crisis.
Whether you love birdwatching, admire David Attenborough, or are exploring how faith and ecology connect, this is an evening you won’t want to miss!
Everyone is welcome to attend the event, which includes an opportunity to learn more about the project and connected study opportunities with St Augustine’s.
Join us at 1700 on Friday 9th May at St John’s Waterloo for welcome refreshments, or come directly to the talk, which starts at 1730 and lasts for one hour, with time for questions and discussion.
