Dr. Lik Tong, Professor of Philosophy School of Business Dining Room Fairfield University faculty join us to talk about their experience as men and women from other faith traditions working in a Catholic institution. Follow-up discussion focuses on what would be helpful for Catholic faculty and administrators to learn in order for there to be a fruitful dialogue that includes all the faculty and takes greatest advantage of the pluralism on campus. Our discussion will focuses on spirituality and survival in the face of competing demands. Workshops include Ignatian, Benedictine, Franciscan, and Christian Feminist spiritualities. A brief description of each spirituality, a program for the day, and a sign-up sheet will be posted on Sunday.
Space is limited for each retreat.
