Missio Program through BU Institute for Faith and Learning

We are excited to announce a new opportunity for LHSON Faculty and Staff. Missio, a year-long program currently offered on the Waco campus, is coming to Dallas! Missio brings people together from across the University to reflect upon Baylor's special mission and identity and the relationship between faith and learning. Through a year-long program, Missio seeks:

• To explore both the challenges and opportunities for Christian colleges and universities in contemporary higher education, especially for Baylor as a Christian research university
• To acquaint faculty with a theological understanding of vocation/calling, both personally and institutionally
• To reflect upon the implications of the Christian calling for academic life in both its teaching and scholarly dimensions
• To foster collegiality, common purpose, and friendship in Missio’s cohort

The program is led by the Baylor University Institute for Faith and Learning. The director of the Institute, Dr. Elisabeth Kincaid, will lead a monthly program here on our LHSON campus. We will gather for lunch monthly and have a brief reading or a guest to help us reflect and generate good discussion.

An introductory meeting was held on Monday, September 16th. To learn more contact Dr. Courtney Brandt or visit the Missio website by clicking here.
