The prestigious Norman A. Stack Community Relations Award will be presented to Fr. Richard Peddicord, President of Aquinas Institute of Theology, and S. Carla Mae Streeter, longtime Aquinas faculty member, at the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) annual meeting at 11:45 a.m. Wednesday, May 25 at the Sheraton Clayton Plaza Hotel, 7730 Bonhomme Avenue.

This award was established in 1989 to honor leaders of the St. Louis community who have made significant contributions to interfaith understanding, intergroup relations and social justice.

Gerald P. Greiman, president of JCRC and Batya Abramson-Goldstein, executive director of the JCRC said in a release: “The JCRC is delighted and deeply honored to add the names of Fr. Peddicord and S. Carla Mae Streeter to the list of those magnificent St. Louis leaders who have received this award and to thereby acknowledge their important contributions to the St. Louis community.”

In addition to the Stack Award, the JCRC annual meeting will be the venue for the awarding of the Milton I. and Merle K. Goldstein, Soldan High School Scholarship Award. This annual scholarship is designated to help graduates of the Goldstein’s high school alma mater defray some of the cost of attending college. The meeting will also include installation of new officers and at-large members of the JCRC Council.

RSVPs required by May 18 to Arlene Baer at 314-442-3871 or [email protected].
