Lunch Meeting on Saturday July 30, 2016
The Province Liturgy and Jubilee Committees invite you to an initial planning
session to begin your year of Jubilee celebration. We will have a lunch
gathering on Saturday, July 30th in the Room with a View. We would like to
have a simple sharing of possible themes that both committees will begin to
explore for this year’s celebration.
The Jubilee and Liturgy Committees look forward to begin planning
this gift of the Province to you. God bless you all, as you begin a year of
jubilee and thanksgiving for your “YES.” v

Engagement Process
We believe that mutuality can only happen when we acknowledge
and deepen our understanding of our privilege, our racism and our
participation in interlocking systems of oppression and exclusion.
I commit to deepen my understanding of my privilege and participation in
systemic racism by attending conversations on diversity scheduled after
each Faculty Assembly at the Mount. Through these conversations I become
aware of and acknowledge my participation in systemic racism, for example:
white flight in the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, the saying “no” to/dissuading of persons
of color requesting to enter and of my unintentional, but real, “microaggressive behaviors” (Call if interested in examples or the meaning of the
term). I commit to continue deepening my awareness so as to not repeat
elements of our shared history. v
