The History of Sion College: A Reception and Lecture prepared by George Bush

As we look ahead to 2030, the 400th anniversary of the foundation of Sion College, this seminar reception offers an opportunity to reflect on the College's remarkable history and its enduring contribution to the intellectual, spiritual and collegial life of the Church of England. Founded in 1630 to promote learning and fellowship among the clergy of London, Sion College has adapted and flourished through periods of profound change while remaining faithful to its founding vision.

Held at St Giles Cripplegate, close to the site of the original College, the lecture will explore Sion's origins, development and continuing significance as it approaches this major anniversary. Researched and prepared by George Bush before his untimely death on Saturday 26th September, it reflects the dedication of a long-standing Fellow and Past President who devoted much time and energy to the life of our College. The evening will therefore offer an opportunity not only to celebrate Sion's history, but also to give thanks for George's life and to raise a glass in his memory.
