Collegium August 2025 News Update
Over 60 participants, mentors and chaplains assembled at St. John’s University in Collegeville, Minnesota for a rich week of contemplative rhythms, all new plenaries, and rich conversation in small groups and dining tables. Perhaps the most quotable line of the week was from Maureen O’Connell, who gave a rousing overview of Catholic Tradition and reminded all present that “you don’t have to ask permission to do the right thing.” Amen!
There was a lot of energy around taking Collegium home, especially on the topic of the next round of Catalyst Grant applications, which are due September 15.
