MARK YOUR CALENDARS

Mark your Calendars!!! FPC Vicksburg Summer Sunday School will begin on June 7th and extend through August 23rd. This year we will be studying the book of Galatians through a teaching series led by Dr. John Gerstner (1914-1996). Dr. Gerstner was a renowned Reformed and Presbyterian theologian and professor in the 20th century. He was trained at Westminster Theological Seminary where he obtained a Master of Divinity degree as well as a Master of Theology degree. Gerster also obtained a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Church History from Harvard University in 1945. After concluding his educational pursuits, Dr. Gerstner served as a professor of Theology and Church History at Pittsburg Theological Seminary and Knox Theological Seminary. Gerstner counted among his students noted author and preacher R. C. Sproul, founder of Ligonier Ministries; Dr. Arthur Lindsley, Senior Fellow at the C.S. Lewis Institute, Dr. Walter (Wynn) Kenyon (2012), former Professor of Biblical Studies and Philosophy and Chair of the Philosophy Department at Belhaven University; Rev. Robert Ingram, founding board member and 1st Headmaster of The Geneva School; and Dr. Mark Ross, the John R. de Witt Professor of Systematic Theology and Director of the Institute for Reformed Worship at Erskine Theological Seminary. Dr. Gerster’s knowledge as well as his passion for teaching God’s Word is sure to inspire and edify our flock this summer. PLEASE note the sign-up sheet in Ward Hall to provide refreshments each week. All volunteers are greatly appreciated!
