On May 20, the American Teilhard Association (ATA) held its annual meeting at the Union Theological Seminary in New York City. This was a very special annual meeting, as we celebrated 30 years of John Grim’s tenure as president of the ATA. He was presented with the Thomas Berry award for his service to the Great Work. We also celebrated the 50th anniversary of the ATA. John gave a lecture at the meeting on “Cosmology and Ecology: The Influence of Teilhard on Berry.”
