"I can think of no one better to study the polity of the Presbyterian Church (USA) from than The Rev. Gradye Parsons. Gradye, having just finished an 8 year term as the Stated Clerk, knows every in and out of our denomination and is able to teach us in a way that is approachable and contextual. Gradye for me has been an example of the great life that the PC(USA) has today. Gradye demonstrates a love for Christ and a passion for the decency and order that makes us Presbyterian. He seeks God in the beauty of creation and rejoices in time with his family. It is a true honor to study under him and I, as well as the session of the church, look forward to this conference at Camp Gilmont."     ​- Rev. Mia Levetan, St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, Longview
