Olivet faculty and administrative leaders gathered at the San Damiano Retreat Center in Danville, California on August 23 for the University's annual Leadership Retreat. The summer retreat is an opportunity for Olivet leaders to gather in fellowship and prepare for the upcoming school year.
The retreat began with University President, Dr. William Wagner, addressing the participants and acknowledging the contributions of the entire University community in the past year before opening the floor to division reports. Formal presentations and small group discussions marked the event, together with fellowship and prayer.
Leaders of Olivet University agreed on the importance of expanding the University’s network as it seeks to fulfill its mission of training Christian leaders around the world.
The retreat garnered high praise from attendees, who confirmed their commitment to University's mission and strived to complete the goals laid out during the meeting. Attendees will continue to meet in sub-committees over the next several months to continue discussions from the retreat.
