SUMMARY:Courage\, Integrity\, & Faith in Action: A Fireside Chat with Alan Storey and Kathryn McElveen
DESCRIPTION:Music & Refreshments at 6:30 pm / Program begins at 7:00pmThis event is free & open to the public! \n\n\n\nRegister for this event here! \n\n\n\nWhat are the bells we want our lives to ring? What are the banners we are called to raise? \n\n\n\nJoin Alan Storey\, South African minister\, activist\, and author of The Bell\, Banners\, and Blasphemy\, in conversation with Kathryn McElveen\, Executive Director of the Center for Courage & Renewal\, for an evening exploring what it means to live and act with integrity at a time when moral questions of justice\, truth\, and courage are pressing into our daily lives\, our communities\, and the institutions that shape our lives. \n\n\n\nRooted in decades of ministry and public witness in Cape Town during and after apartheid\, Alan’s work has centered on the question of what happens when faith communities refuse to remain silent in the face of injustice. At the Central Methodist Mission\, Alan helped cultivate a tradition of public moral courage through the church’s “Yellow Banners\,” which boldly spoke to issues of power\, privilege\, and human dignity in the public square. \n\n\n\nDrawing from these experiences and the work stewarded at the Center for Courage & Renewal\, Alan and Kathryn will reflect on the deeper inner and relational work required to live faithfully in a world marked by division and struggle. Together\, they’ll explore questions such as: \n\n\n\n\nHow do we listen for the deeper voice within us that calls us toward truth\, justice\, and compassion?\n\n\n\nWhat habits and practices help individuals and communities cultivate the courage to speak and act when it matters most?\n\n\n\nWhat does it look like for faith communities and people of conscience more broadly to bring their values into public life?\n\n\n\n\nAt its heart\, this evening will be an exploration of how we sustain the posture of love\, truth\, and justice over the long arc of our lives\, and how we nurture the trustworthy relationships and communities that make that possible. \n\n\n\n\n\nRead more below about Alan Storey and Kathryn McElveen! \n\n\n\nAlan StoreyRooted in the South African context … Alan is a Gospel storyteller and facilitator of personal and political change. \n\n\n\nAlan’s commitment to the Jesus way of justice and peace-making was tested early in his life when he faced  conscription into the apartheid regime’s military. He chose to be a conscientious objector. He was arrested and faced trial with a six-year prison sentence as the likely outcome. Alan’s trial was abandoned midway\, and he became the last conscientious objector to be brought to trial in apartheid South Africa. Over the years he has been involved in numerous civil society organizations addressing: gun violence\, racism; state-capture corruption; xenophobia; homophobia; transphobia; spacial apartheid inequality; sex worker discrimination and campaign for a universal basic income. Alan spearheaded the transformation of the Stipend Policy within the Methodist Church of Southern Africa. \n\n\n\nAlan recently retired from serving at the Central Methodist Mission in Cape Town. As a Methodist minister for 33 years who lived off weekly words\, he is now exploring silence and solitude … while writing. Having recently written the 2025 Andrew Murray Desmond Tutu Prize winning The bell\, banners and blasphemy.  \n\n\n\nAlan has a Honors degree in Theology and a Masters in the Philosophy of Applied Business Ethics. He is a recipient of the Rotary Paul Harris Fellowship Award and a fellow of the African Leadership Initiative (part of the Aspen Leadership Institute). \n\n\n\nAlan’s lifelong work remains the experimental practice of the Sermon on the Mount. \n\n\n\nAlan’s hope is to contribute to “heal the divisions of the past and establish a society based on democratic values\, social justice and fundamental human rights.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKathryn McElveenKathryn McElveen is the Executive Director of the Center for Courage & Renewal. Her work in public and private nonprofits\, social justice\, leadership formation\, and executive coaching has focused on helping people—and their communities and organizations—integrate their inner and outer lives\, align values and actions\, and cultivate the agency and stamina necessary to sustain meaningful change. Kathryn is an experienced Courage & Renewal facilitator\, committed to expanding access to our approach\, and deepening the understanding and engagement of our principles\, practices\, and values to transform organizational systems and cultures to their most life-giving potential.
