Last week, we celebrated Jennifer Britton and her faithful service as Vice President for Finance and Administration at Union Presbyterian Seminary. As she moves on to new opportunities, we send her off with deep gratitude for her leadership, dedication, and the lasting impact she’s made on our community.

Jennifer, you will be missed, but we know great things are ahead for you. Wishing you all the best on this next adventure!

After 25 years of dedicated service, Rev. Dr. Ken

After 25 years of dedicated service, Rev. Dr. Ken McFayden is retiring at the end of this academic year. From shaping theological education to mentoring countless leaders, his impact on Union Presbyterian Seminary and the wider Church is immeasurable.

Ken has worn many hats—academic dean, professor, director, to only name a few—all with wisdom, care, and a deep love for the community. His leadership will be missed, but his legacy will continue to inspire.

Join us in celebrating Ken and wishing him well in this next chapter!

A mark of repentance, reflection, and renewal. Yesterday at UP Seminary, the Lenten journey began.

Poetry brought students, faculty, alums, and friends to the Charlotte campus of @upseminary this weekend. The featured poet was Alphonso Saville IV, Assistant Professor of American Religious History and Mission at UPSem. The event was co-hosted by @upsemcsjr and the deans of both @Charlotte and @Richmond. Classes are in session today (Saturday) and a special worship service at Sharon Presbyterian Church as the Rev. Dr. Elizabeth Hinson-Hasty was installed in the J. Roy Davis Family Chair in Theology and History. It was a great day in Charlotte and for UPSem! You can watch the entire worship service on the UPSem YouTube channel.

We are honored to announce the inauguration of Rev. Dr. Elizabeth Hinson-Hasty on March 1, 2025, as the J. Roy Davis Family Chair of Theology and History at our Charlotte Campus!

A distinguished theologian, ethicist, and speaker, Dr. Hinson-Hasty has dedicated her career to exploring faith, social justice, and public life. In February, she delivered the prestigious William L. Self Preaching Lectures at Mercer University’s McAfee School of Theology, tackling topics like preaching amid political polarization and claiming your story in the pulpit. Her seventh book, "Authentic Christian Freedom: Deconstructing the American Gospel of Liberty," releases in May 2025.

Join us March 1 at 11:45 a.m. at Sharon Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, NC, for her inauguration and worship service, where she will speak on The Freedom to Live in Self-Giving Love for the Sake of Others. All are welcome to celebrate this joyous occasion.

Ryan Atkinson is all about service—both in the church and the classroom. A 2024 graduate of Union Presbyterian Seminary (M.Div./M.A.C.E.), he now provides IT support at UPSem’s Charlotte campus during the week and serves as interim pastor at Davidson Presbyterian Church in Davidson, NC.

His path to seminary was fueled by big questions and a desire for real, hands-on learning. “We get to put one foot in the academic world and the other in the real world early on,” Ryan says. “It’s both practical and important.” He chose Union Presbyterian Seminary for its honesty about the past and its commitment to building a more just future.

At Davidson Presbyterian, he’s helping carry out the church’s mission to exalt the Savior, evangelize the sinner, and equip the saints. This Black History Month, we celebrate Ryan’s dedication to faith, education, and service—making an impact in both the church and the seminary.
