Worldview at the Abbey Update

If you haven't already heard, this coming year I'll be working in Colorado. Here's some information about the program and updated information on support-raising. 

The Abbey in Canon City Colorado houses a Tudor-Gothic styled monastery, a historic home, farmland and beautiful gardens. This Central Coloradan acreage ceased to belong to the Catholic church when it was sold to an independent investor in 2007. Starting in 2014, Worldview Academy rented a portion of this facility and began a college preparatory academic program for seventeen to twenty-two year olds called Worldview at the Abbey. In September, I’ll be working here as resident director.

During two semesters, students prepare for college intellectually, spiritually, emotionally and physically. Students completing the program, earn twenty-four credit hours at various Christian colleges throughout the states. Faculty teach literature, history, apologetics, political science and economics. The students actively participate in the learning process spending class time discussing the ideas presented in assigned readings. Students also take part in hands-on service to the community, team-building leadership practicums, Bible studies and prayer.

This program strives to prepare students for college. Abbey graduates will have already read, heard and pondered the foundational ideas behind many pre-requisite college courses. Graduates also will have practiced tools helpful in self-instruction and persuasive communication. In training students to be independent thinkers, to love God with all and to love people self-sacrificially, this academic program proactively equips young men and women to positively impact the college campus and beyond. More information is located at worldviewbridgeyear.com.

As resident director, I will mentor the female students and lead a weekly Bible study with them. While living life and seeking Christ with the girls, I will love, encourage and challenge them. Please pray for me, the leadership team I’m joining and the students that are coming. Pray we would have wisdom and discernment, submissive hearts and clear direction, safety and favor.

If you are interested in partnering with me financially, please see below for details. You may contact me for more information about the program and what my role will entail. Also, check my blog hannahgabriellesharp.blogspot.com for updates. Thank you very much for taking time to read this post.
