- CHURCH VOCATIONS SYMPOSIUM
Church Vocations Symposium encourages students interested in different church vocations to interact with one another over a meal and discussion in Huegli Hall on Tuesdays. Presentations may include a professor reflecting on the relationship of his or her field of study and theology; missionaries; pastors and other church workers describing their work and their call to ministry or guest speakers on topics relating to contemporary ministry in the church today.
Text studies are led by the Chapel preacher for the following Sunday unless a special event pre-empts the study.
If you're not on the "Church Voc" e-mail list and would like to be, send an e-mail to Doreen.Olguin-Flores@valpo.edu and we'll add you to the list (limited to VU students, faculty and staff).
