Immersion Experience

Please list any skills which would be of use for this immersion experience, i.e. Spanish language proficiency, relevant traveling experience, medical training or certification, teaching experience, etc. *

We, on this trip, do not see this as a typical service trip for we believe that we go to immerse ourselves into the glory of God found in this Ecuadorian community. Our reality of privilege, as members of the United States and this Marquette University, allows us many opportunities not afforded to most people of the world. The purpose of this immersion trip is to be more aware of those privileges and to possibly leave them behind as we immerse ourselves into their culture. As a result, we will strive to avoid the excesses common to most affluent tourists. Therefore, participants will likely not visit all the tourist sies. Further, the program asks its participants to commit to a simple, rustic lifestyle with limitations to showers, simple meals, a youth hostel sleeping quarters, a "no headphones" request and a willingness to experience community in a deeply meaningful way.

Would you have a problem with any of the requests made of you to live without some of the luxuries you may be used to? *

While all students are welcome to participate, this program is structured in a way that promotes spiritual reflection, prayer, and group processing.

What is your experience in group processing or prayer leadership? *

For more information, feel free to contact Ann Mulgrew or Gerry Fischer in Campus Ministry.
