Description
Priest, poet, professor, and environmentalist Jim Conlon has worked tirelessly building bridges between science and religion for more than a quarter century.
In the tradition of cultural historian and geologian Thomas Berry at the Riverdale Center for Religious Research, Fr. Conlon composed programs and reflections at Springbank Retreat in Kingstree, South Carolina, during his retirement years. He says, "Through this work, I reflect on the watershed moments that affect all our lives. I feel a mysterious and incessant invitation. I hope to understand, experience, and give expression to the questions still rumbling in my soul."

Person
Priest, poet, professor, and environmentalist Jim Conlon has worked tirelessly building bridges between science and religion for more than a quarter century. Jim Conlon was born in Canada in 1936. He received a degree in chemistry from Assumption University of Windsor, and later in theology from the University of Western Ontario, and a PhD from Union Institute and University. Deeply moved by the impact of the second Vatican Council, the civil rights movement, and the Vietnam War, Jim moved from pastoral work to the streets. He was the recipient of the 2013 Thomas Berry Award. For more information and a complete list of Jim's published works, see: www.jimconlon.net.
