Timothy P. Muldoon, Ph.D., theologian, award-winning author, director of mission education for Catholic Extension and professor at Boston College, visits Saint Peter’s University on Thursday, April 12 in The Duncan Family Sky Room from 6:30-8:30 p.m. The event will start with a meet and greet reception and conclude with a Q&A and book signing. The master of ceremonies will be James D. Manney ’67, author and former senior editor at Loyola Press.
The lecture “Extending the Jesuit Mission Today: Love, Mercy and the University” focuses on two major interest points Dr. Muldoon has concentrated on over the last decade: the formation of young people in the Jesuit and Ignatian tradition and reaching out to communities on the margins of U.S. society. The talk grows out of a course Dr. Muldoon has taught for many years at Boston College, which invites all to reflect on what enables a person to live a good life in service to others. Dr. Muldoon will frame the discussion around stories based on missions, which will invite people to think about their most authentic desires for living in a good and just world.
The John Tagliabue ’67, H ’05 Lecture Series was established through a generous gift from Paul Tagliabue H ’05, former National Football League commissioner, in honor of his brother, John Tagliabue, a 1967 graduate of Saint Peter’s and reporter with The New York Times, with the purpose of featuring authors, journalists and writers of interest who are concerned with preserving and renewing the University’s Catholic and Jesuit mission and identity.
The event is complimentary; however, a gift to the Office of Campus Ministry would be appreciated. To register for the event, click here. For more information, please contact Sharon T. Morrissey, M.B.A., M.Ed. ’13 at smorrissey@saintpeters.edu. To view more upcoming alumni events, click here.
