Reformation Day at Emory, 2006

Each year the Candler School of Theology celebrates Reformation Day with special events that culminate in an evening concert. This year's events take place on October 24, 2006.

The 19th annual Reformation Day at Emory program will take as its theme, "Luther and the Poor," and include a rich array of lectures and music, culminating in an evening concert that features the Jaeckel organ, a 14-ton, custom-built instrument with 3,605 pipes, and the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts.

At any of these events, participants are invited to contribute a pair of socks to be distributed to the homeless in Atlanta by Candler's Social Concerns Network.
