Brian Blair, President, Bryn Athyn College
I
would like to give you an update on Bryn Athyn College and the progress
we are making to deliver a college education supported by New Church

mission forward. I can’t begin to tell you how much I enjoy going to work
every day. What a privilege it is to work with such inspiring individuals. I think
