Option one: Our Place in Nature
September 10 and 17, 2024
Our Place in Nature guides students to recognize their roots in nature and their connection to the bigger world. They will walk trails, listen to guided meditations, and have the opportunity to get their hands in the dirt while serving to maintain the forest and wetlands at the Passionist Earth & Spirit Center. It will be a time of discovery, introspection, and small group sharing, culminating in a new understanding for their place in this world.
Option two: Tigers in the City
October 10, 2024, January 14, 2025, January 14, 2025, February 4, 2025, and February 25, 2025
Tigers in the City invites students to respond to the Catholic, Xaverian call to work for justice and peace by serving the marginalized at various organizations in the Louisville community. After gathering for prayer and reflection they will head out to respond to the needs of others at places such as Harbor House, the Kling Center, Casa Latina, the Franciscan Soup Kitchen, and other partner agencies. By encountering others and building relationships, students will understand the importance of “falling in love with the service of God.”
