DESCRIPTION:Cyprian's Talks is the first in a series of public conversations about 
 topics that matter held in the sanctuary of St. Cyprian's Episcopal Church, 
 a unique church rooted in the African American & Caribbean history of San 
 Francisco. Our inaugural discussion focuses on a sensitive subject one that 
 gets far too little attention in the mainstream media, even as many 
 politicians and religious leaders continue to use our differences to divide 
 us rather than draw us together. These civil discussions are free and open 
 to the public.\n\nThe Reverend Dr. Horace L. Griffin, a native Floridian 
 and School of Theology graduate of Boston University, he served most 
 recently as Associate Priest for Youth and Family Ministries at All Saints 
 Episcopal Church, Glen Rock, NJ. While on the faculty at Seabury-Western 
 Theological Seminary in the Diocese of Chicago, he was ordained a priest in 
 2005. A professor of Pastoral Theology and Leadership at Pacific School of 
 Religion, Berkeley, he teaches courses in Congregational Leadership and 
 Gender and Sexuality. His work at All Souls includes adult formation and 
 pastoral care. As an openly gay priest and author of Their Own Receive Them 
 Not: African American Lesbians and Gays in Black Churches (2006 Lambda 
 Literary Award Winner), he is involved in progressive Christian 
 conversations on race and homosexuality currently taking place in the 
 Episcopal Church USA and Anglican Communion. \n\nThe Very Reverend Alan W. 
 Jones was the Dean of the Episcopalian Grace Cathedral in San Francisco 
 from 1985 until January, 2009. Previously, he served as the Stephen F. 
 Bayne Professor of Ascetical Theology at the General Theological Seminary 
 in New York City from 1972 - 1985. During his tenure, he founded and was 
 the first director of the Center Christian Spirituality at General. Now a 
 U.S. citizen, he was born in England and received his Ph.D. from the 
 University of Nottingham. He is a prominent lecturer in Episcopalian and 
 academic circles both nationally and internationally. He is a prolific 
 writer as well of books, articles, and editorial opinions. Jones was also 
 the moderator of The Forum at Grace Cathedral.\n
