Daily Mission Reflections
Need a few minutes for contemplating the big picture and the choices in your life? Read the daily Mission reflections and discuss them with friends or colleagues. Consider stopping by the Chapel of the Holy Family on AMU’s second floor for a few moments of quiet in a busy week. Sponsored by the Faber Center for Ignatian Spirituality.
Imagine the Courage to Act
Sometimes it is only our imaginations that keep us from doing the right thing. Stop by the AMU first floor display case to reflect on what the “the courage to act” might mean in your own life. Sponsored by Alpha Sigma Nu.
