The Popes and The Presidents: Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of U.S.-Holy See Diplomatic Relations
St. Mary's Seminary
In 1984, the Reagan administration normalized diplomatic relations between the United States and the Holy See--a relationship that extends back all the way to the Washington administration in the late 1780s. This year, we celebrate 40 years of formal diplomatic relations between the two and all that has been accomplished through diplomatic cooperation.To celebrate this anniversary, you are invited to join us on the evening of October 10, 2024, for a special conversation with Ambassador Kenneth Hackett, former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See (2013-2017), with Fr. Matthew Súniga, Vice Rector of the St. Mary's Seminary, serving as moderator.The evening will also feature pre-recorded remarks from the Honorable James A. Baker, III, former U.S. Secretary of State (1989-1992) and who served as the Chief of Staff to President Ronald Reagan when diplomatic relations were normalized.This event is free and open to the public, but registration is required. A reception will immediately follow the conversation and Ambassador Hackett's book, The Vatican Code, will be available for purchase.This event is sponsored by St. Mary's Seminary, the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, the University of St. Thomas, and the World Affairs Council of Greater Houston.Event Details -
