Go to Marquette Home


Thursday, Feb. 7: Faith and Leadership

Noon Liturgy
The Chapel of The Holy Family
The entire Marquette community is welcome to attend this Mission Week Mass, to give thanks for the many blessings of God and pray for a spirit of generosity in living our common mission. Please join other students and colleagues in prayer at this special Eucharistic celebration.


4 p.m. , Martin Luther King III, Speech and Reception
Varsity Theatre and AMU, 227
Martin Luther King III, the eldest son of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King, and president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, will speak on Faith, Justice and a Vision for the Future. King has worked as a human rights advocate, community activist and political leader throughout the world for more than three decades. His commitment to a faithful and just response to the inequalities in society make his reflections particularly appropriate for Marquette's Mission Week.

Following a brief question and answer session, members of the Marquette community are invited to join King at a reception in the AMU. This event is co-sponsored by the Office of Student Development, MUSG, University Ministry, the Law School, the Diversity Task Force, the Black History Month Committee, and the Office of Mission and Identity.

Free tickets for King's talk in the Varsity Theatre are sold out but tickets are available to view the speech via video in the Weasler Auditorium.

Individuals with tickets for the Varsity Theatre that they will not be using are asked to return the tickets to Union Station in the AMU or the Office of Student Development in AMU, 121.
