Missio Luncheon

Missio brings people together from across the University to reflect upon Baylor's special mission and identity and the relationship between faith and learning. Through a year-long program, Missio seeks:

• To explore both the challenges and opportunities for Christian colleges and universities in contemporary higher education, especially for Baylor as a Christian research university
• To acquaint faculty with a theological understanding of vocation/calling, both personally and institutionally
• To reflect upon the implications of the Christian calling for academic life in both its teaching and scholarly dimensions
• To foster collegiality, common purpose, and friendship in Missio’s cohort

We plan to gather for lunch each month. We have a brief reading or a guest to help us reflect and generate good discussion. Missio members automatically have a reserved place for Communio in May. In addition, we provide participants a modest stipend for books that might enrich their understanding of the relationship between faith and learning.
