23-06-2010
The North American arm of Refo500 was launched in Atlanta, Georgia, on June 21-22, 2010. Meeting at the Emory University Center for the Study of Law and Religion, Dr. Herman Selderhuis, the International Director of the Refo500 project, introduced staff and key North American leaders.
Dr. Selderhuis, President of the Theological University in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, commented: “The Reformation of the Sixteenth Century was one of the world’s most influential events for the history of North America. The shaping of a new way of life, of religion, of doing politics, of education and commerce resulting from Martin Luther’s message has not only affected the way in which North America developed over the centuries, but is more than ever relevant for people of the 21st century.”
