Our friend and colleague, Dr. Mary E. Hunt, has been recognized as one of six recipients of the annual Peter J. Gomes Honors from Harvard Divinity School. Dr. Hunt is being recognized for her work in feminist and liberation theology, as well as for her impact on the Divinity School itself.

Reflecting on the man whose work the award recognizes, Mary Hunt said, “Peter Gomes lived early the diversity we take as normative today,” she said. “People of color, LGBTIQ people, and women are now integral members of a more inclusive community than the one he entered. I am inspired by his good humor and stylish hospitality, edified by his excellence in intellectual and pastoral pursuits, and challenged by his integrity. I look forward to living up to this award as many more opportunities to evolve and embrace come our collective way in the years ahead.”
