Let Your Life Speak: Discovering Your Passion and Purpose
Most of us will spend a great deal of our waking hours at work. One of the important questions we often consider throughout our lives is how to find work that enriches us with a sense of purpose so that rather than have work consume us, we consume work to support a meaningful life. In the Ignatian tradition: finding our vocations means discovering our gifts, listening to our hearts for divine guidance, and reaching out to live with greater joy and meaning. This class will give you the opportunity to discern your vocation by the aid of career assessments and listening to guest speakers (mostly USF alums) who have found how to apply their gifts and talents to the world. Each class will provide time to reflect on the information presented by maintaining a journal and class discussion. When a keen sense of self is combined with knowledge of how you would like to apply your interests and talents, you will have arrived at a working definition of your personal vocation.
