Lilly Endowment Grant

“Before I can tell my life what I want to do with it, I must listen to my life telling me who I am.” -Parker Palmer

 

St. Paul's United Methodist Church and Wesley Foundation at Pennsylvania State University-University Park, thanks to a very generous five­ year grant from the Lilly Endowment, has created opportunities for students to explore theology and vocation and participate in hands-on ministry experiences.  Through the Wesley Fellows program, Wesley PSU invites six to eight undergraduate students each year to participate in ministry internships and  to receive mentoring from pastors and religious leaders. Other key activities from the grant include: service experiences, leadership training events and vocational discernment retreats.
