December 2007 EXPLORE! On January 11 & 12th, first-year students will be in for a treat with the 4th annual EXPLORE! retreat at Camp Berachah: Auburn, WA. We hope you'll encourage your first-year student to register.
This PLU tradition is a unique opportunity to connect with staff and faculty in an off-campus retreat setting. This retreat is about making s’mores around the campfire, having conversations that matter, and starting to EXPLORE what we are called to do with this "one wild and precious life."
As a part of the Wild Hope Project, the EXPLORE! retreat is designed to improve the quality of student reflection on the notion of vocation. At PLU, vocation is the intersection of one's talents, inclinations, and choices with the needs of the world. Reflection on vocation involves situating educational and life choices within the frame of broader questions of meaning and purpose. EXPLORE! facilitators help students identify those big questions in their lives while also sharing about their own journey.
This event is free! However, spots are limited. Visit the EXPLORE! Website at www.plu.edu/%7Eexplore/ to register and view the video from last year’s retreat!
