Seminary students sing during morning prayer in the chapel. The Right Rev. Edward Salmon, a retired South Carolina bishop, will be installed this week as the seminary's new dean and president. He will succeed the Rev. Robert Munday, Nashotah House's longest-serving dean.
Nashotah - There is a certain rhythm to life at Nashotah House Theological Seminary that has remained unchanged over the last century or so.
Seminarians shuttle between the stone buildings, some in the long, black cassocks of the clergy. Their days begin and end in prayer and ancient chant in the Chapel of St. Mary the Virgin. And they live and work in community, in keeping with the Benedictine spirituality of their founders.
But much is new on the grounds of this Episcopal seminary on the shores of Upper Nashotah Lake that has prepared students in the church's Anglo-Catholic tradition for nearly 170 years. Enrollment is up, driven in part by a distance-learning program that draws students from around the world. The school has christened a new $1.6 million building, its first in 20 years.
