³Ô¹ÏÁÔÆæ Senior Cindy Nunag to attend prestigious GIVEN Forum
³Ô¹ÏÁÔÆæ's (³Ô¹ÏÁÔÆæ) Cindy Nunag, senior nursing major, will join a selected group of Catholic women at the National GIVEN Catholic Young Women’s Leadership Forum in June 2016. Nunag was selected as one of only 300 individuals from a nationwide applicant pool to attend the Forum, where she will develop leadership skills and meet several women in key positions from various organizations, including a keynote address by Dr. Carolyn Woo, president and CEO of Catholic Relief Services.
Nunag will participate in events and speaker sessions focused on three main themes – receive the gift you are; realize the gifts you have been given; and respond with the gift that only you can give – through the week before bringing the skills she learned home. She hopes to apply these themes to share culturally-influenced religious programming in her home church in honor of her own family's cultural heritage.
³Ô¹ÏÁÔÆæ’s Department of Mission and Ministry recommended Nunag for the GIVEN Forum because of her involvement in the Campus Ministry. She leads a faith sharing group, ministers in various ways during the 8 p.m. Sunday Mass and serves as a resident peer minister for the Quad Halls on campus.
