Marquette Moms started in January 2010 with a group of moms returning to work following maternity leave with their first child and struggling to transition back to work and find a work-life balance. This
group meets over lunch during the year to talk about the joys and struggles of parenthood and working mothers. Twice a semester, Marquette Moms is sponsored by the Faber Center (9/23 and 11/18, 2013). Lunch is provided and Dr. Kathy Coffey-Guenther, Associate Vice President in Mission and Ministry joins the group and facilitates a more pointed discussion. Currently, Marquette Moms is made up of over 60 women employees/mothers of young children. For more information on how to join the group, contact Brigid Kinsella-Alba (brigid.kinsella-alba@marquette.edu) or Kristina Schmitt (kristina.schmitt@marquette.edu).
The Faber Center library offers a selection of many books by numerous authors for your reading and/or spiritual education and refreshment. All books are included in the Raynor Memorial Libraries on-line catalog, MARQCAT, and are located in the Faber Center, Schroeder Complex, Room 111. For a complete list see www.marquette.edu/faber
under the “Resource Links.” Call 288-4545 with any questions and/or to arrange pickup of book/s.
The Faber Center offers an opportunity to meet regularly (at a mutually suitable time) with a spiritual director, someone with whom to talk and reflect on the invitations and experiences we encounter that lead us to grow into a deeper awareness of that which is sacred and meaningful in our lives.
