Following a lunch with the leadership team, the distinguished guests engaged with classes in the school’s lecture hall and Trinity Chapel.

“We were very honored to have had the visit of Dean Willis,” said The Reverend Dr. Mary Ellen Cassini, chaplain at PTS. “His lifetime of ministry, compassionate pastoral work and support of our global communities have inspired us with lessons we can apply in our life.”
