Remembering Dr. J.I. Packer

Many remember Dr. J.I. Packer for his remarkable contributions to evangelical theology. To his friends, colleagues, and students, Jim’s influence reached beyond the purely intellectual. His love for Christ, his delight in teaching, and his commitment to the church had a profound influence in the academy, the church, and the world. You are cordially invited to join the Regent College community for a special online tribute event honouring and remembering Jim Packer: author, professor, colleague, churchman, and friend. On Wednesday, November 18, special guests will pay tribute to Jim's life, faith, and ministry as the choir of St. John's Vancouver offers up some of his most-loved hymns. Guests will testify to Jim's influence in many spheres--the worlds of scholarship, the broad evangelical community, Regent College, the Anglican communion, and his local church. Following the online tribute, the Regent College Alumni Office will host an open sharing time over Zoom to give alumni and friends the opportunity to share memories and stories from 1:45-2:45 PST. Visit rgnt.net/remember for more information. Please join us as we pay tribute to this dear friend who showed us how to live in the love and knowledge of God. To make a gift to the J.I. Packer Memorial Scholarship, please visit rgnt.net/jipacker.
