MC3009/PT3010 Cultural Exploration and Mission

This course has three main objectives: a. to strengthen the ability of students to adapt to, and respect, other cultures in this globalized world; b. to enhance the students’ vision of God’s active presence in the world and of their vocation within that action; and c. to give students the chance to reflect on their encounter with God and others in a cross-cultural setting, in order to open themselves to life-changing experiences. These objectives will be approached through classroom instruction, short-term travel to, and engagement with, a cultural setting outside Hong Kong, and personal reflection on that engagement through submission of a formal paper.
