For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. -- II Corinthians 5:14-15
Praise God for a profitable conversation with the Mid-Atlantic Graduate & Faculty Staff Team regarding the finalizing of details for the Graduate Student Winter Retreat! More later.
Praise God for conversations with two Loyola faculty and an undergraduate staff worker which give testimony to the dynamic relationship with students, staff, and faculty at Loyola. Tomorrow we'll have further conversations regarding next steps in the faculty-undergraduate ministry relationship and the further development of a faculty network, even fellowship.
