The Palmer Memorial Lecture is delivered each year by a prominent and engaging figure in the world of spirituality — someone who is contributing to and often leading important conversations about how we can deepen and live out our Christian faith in today's world. The lecture takes place at Christ Church Cathedral, 150 Church Street, Fredericton.
Join us in-person for the talk and an informal reception with light refreshments to follow ($30 per ticket).
