Program aims to foster religion

Each of the dinners features a catered meal, a presentation by a University of Dayton faculty or staff member and a small group discussion facilitated by a student.

"We invite faculty from different areas of study to speak," said Crystal Sullivan, assistant director of Campus Ministry. "We have had speakers from the sciences, arts, social sciences, business, religious studies, really a very wide range of areas."

The first speaker this year is Dr. Sandra Yocum. Yocum, a religious studies faculty member, will give a talk titled "Daily Acts of Faith: Seeing in the Dark, Listening in the Silence."The Perspectives on Faith and Life program began in 2005 and has hosted around 25 dinners since then.
