Till & Keep Spring 2008 has Arrived
The Lilly Program is pleased to announce the latest issue of Till & Keep, the annual journal of Exploring Our Gifts, an Augsburg program generously supported by the Lilly Endowment. The goal of this publication is to stimulate reflection about meaning and purpose in daily life and to explore what it means to be called to service in the world.
Augsburg College is firmly grounded in the belief that we are called to serve our neighbor, and the pieces in this issue of Till & Keep affirm that value and demonstrate some of the many ways people conceive of this task and put it into practice. Contributors include Augsburg faculty members and students as well as distinguished visitors to campus. Among the writers and artists, you may recognize people you know! We are grateful to all of them for their insightful reflections and inspiring work.
Watch for copies of Till & Keep around campus! On-campus distribution will begin soon. Meanwhile, check out the PDF file at http://www.augsburg.edu/lilly/tk08.pdf
