The Journey Project offers several opportunities for faculty and staff to explore their vocation. Read below to see what we have to offer you!
Are you looking for experiences to expand your own sense of vocation? Our Faculty and Staff workshops are held in the spring. Last spring we sponsored the Call To Create seminar that explored relationships among vocation, creativity and spirituality. Faculty and Staff Book Discussion groups meet regularly throughout the year. Last spring we read
Life is a Miracle, by Wendell Berry and this summer we read
The Soul of a Citizen, by Paul Loeb. We will be reading
The Idea of A Catholic University, by George Dennis O’Brien in the fall.
Do you need help with an academic or service oriented project? The Journey Project provides financial support for student interns to work on: community-based research projects; direct service to schools or churches, or non-profit organizations. For example, an environmental science student developed a GIS survey for Pfeiffer Nature Center.
Do you have an idea that might help strengthen students’ understanding of vocation? Sub Grants are offered to faculty, staff and students to assist in developing programs that foster a sense of vocation. Funded proposals have included research projects, service trips, and mentoring Programs.
