The Portsmouth Abbey School will be hosting a conference by the Portsmouth Institute June 22-24th, entitled Modern Science, Ancient Faith .

Nicanor Austriaco from Providence College, and John Haught of the Woodstock Theological Seminary at Georgetown University, will explore the practical implications of teaching faith and science at universities today:
