3rd Conference: Fr. Paul’s Speech

Dated: January 31, 2026 admin

Rev./Prof. Paul Siewers is a priest at a mission in Northern Appalachian “Pennsyltucky.” A Professor of English and Orthodox Chaplain at Bucknell University, he heads the Bucknell Program for American Leadership. A past fellow in Religion and Public Life at the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton, Fr. Paul previously worked as Urban Affairs Writer at The Sun-Times in Chicago, where he appreciated the legacy of Richard Weaver as a Southern agrarian dwelling in that city. His views are his own; he shares them at his blog Christian Ecopoetics and Apologetic Theology.

Visit the Event Page to discover what our 3rd Annual Conference was all about. And be sure to subscribe to our newsletter for updates about next year’s conference, and to find out about any fresh content published to our website as well as general Fellowship news. Thanks!

Editor’s note: Also available is a transcription of Fr. Paul’s learned and loving speech.
