    Compline

    Please join the Music area for a sung plainchant compline on Thursday, October 22nd, at 7pm in the Oratory. Compline is prayer at the close of day, and ours features music from the Benedictine Communities of Sacred Heart Monastery, Blue Cloud Abbey, and St Meinrad Archabbey.
     
    Sacred Pause Retreat

    Take a moment for prayer this week by attending one of the offered Sacred Pause Retreats!

    Sacred Pause Retreats offer a purposeful, intentional space to learn new ways of understanding prayer. Designed as a quick 50 minute break to fit seamlessly into your day, these sessions give you dedicated time for quiet reflection and meditation.

    This week’s sessions are presented by S. Mary Jo on:

    Prayer in the Environment of Our Lives

    What can God teach you through the world around you? Spend time in prayer reflecting on everyday objects—like a rock, a door, a clock, or a seed.

    First session is offered on Tuesday, October 20th at 8am in the Bishop Marty Chapel and the second session is offered on Saturday, October 24th at 10am in the Bishop Marty Chapel.

    We hope you take advantage of this amazing opportunity to practice the Benedictine values of conversatio, stewardship, and hospitality. Through a generous donor, these retreats are free to all staff, faculty, and students.

    People of Mount Marty University

    In honor of the 90th anniversary of Mount Marty, the Student Affairs Team wants to take this year to celebrate the heart of the institution: the people. We are looking to showcase a student, staff, or faculty member of Mount Marty every other week who embodies the Benedictine values of Mount Marty. Whether it's through a specific example, an anecdote, or the way they show up everyday, Student Affairs wants your nominations of who you believe showcases what makes Mount Marty University the incredible place that it is.

    To nominate a student, staff or faulty member please use this link.

    Nominees will be randomly selected and posted outside on the boards outside of Whitney’s office in the Raven. 

    To kick off our People of MMU series, the first student featured is a senior business major, Levi Langloss. See why he is profiled with his feature in the Raven!
