PlanPhilly: Planning Philadelphia's Future

History and tradition can be an asset or a constraint in a global economy. Given our present positioning as a community and a city; as a congregation and a region, how do we maximize the value of this history?

Jeremy Nowak, PhD., President & CEO, William Penn Foundation; founder of The Reinvestment Fund; 1995 recipient, The Philadelphia Award, the author of numerous articles, his recent publications examine policy options for distressed cities and the role of art and culture in neighborhood regeneration.

As Saint Peter’s Celebrates its 250th anniversary, we look ahead to our next 250 years with a series of noted speakers, theologians, dreamers and revolutionaries who will help us think about how we are going to be Christ’s hands and heart for our neighborhood and for our city.

EXHIBIT - FAITH IN ACTION FOR 250 YEARS
9 - 4 weekdays, Saturdays 11-1, Sundays following services 215-925-5968
Come see all the memorabilia and ephemera of St. Peter's rich history - everything from the deed of land from Thomas and Richard Penn, a lock of Bishop White's hair, a ticket from the lottery to raise money for the completion of the church, the Book of Common Prayer showing the deletion of the prayers for the King, and the historic sliver flagons which have been on loan to the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
