WHO IS DENNIS DEWEY?

Dennis Dewey is internationally acclaimed as a master biblical storyteller. An ordained minister of the Presbyterian Church (USA), he has performed and taught at hundreds of venues all over the world.

He has been featured at the National Storytelling Festival, Princeton Theological Seminary's Institute of Theology, the Joseph Campbell Festival, Oxford University and on national television. Dennis has also served as Executive Director of the Network of Biblical Storytellers.

After fourteen years at this ecumenical, itinerant storytelling ministry, Dennis Dewey is has been called to be the Designated Pastor of Stone Presbyterian Church in Clinton, New York. Stone church understands part of its mission to be making Dennis available to share his gifts on reasonable basis.

If you are interested in engaging Dennis, it will be best to plan at least six months in advance. He also expects to continue to offer one storytelling trip each year to Greece, Scotland/England, Israel/Palestine or another sacred story site. In May 2008 he is leading "The Stories of the Journeys of Paul" to Greece and the Greek Islands. Early next summer (2009) he hopes to offer a trip to Scotland. If you're interested, please call or email him.

Dennis is grateful for all those who have supported this ministry over the years. He says, "I have been blessed to make friends all over the United States and Canada and from Sydney to Cape Town to London. I hope that this ministry has helped change the way the scriptures are heard, and I intend to keep at it as long as I have breath to tell the story!"
