Join Spiritual and Religious Life Dean Mark R. Orten for a half-hour of quiet contemplation with reading and music for our times. Intentional silence and guided meditation will be interspersed with music and readings from secular worldviews and sacred traditions to open our awareness and to find strength and perspective for living during pandemical, political, racial, ecological and other upheavals.

UPDATE, DEC. 10:  The programs were printed and the greens were hung, the poinsettias were placed and the choir was warming up!  Sunday afternoon and evening promised to be a festive and meaningful celebration of Advent and Christmas. Regrettably, due to the increased number of Covid cases on campus, out of an abundance of caution we are not able to gather for this annual celebration of Lessons and Carols.
