Numen Lumen 2022-23: ME: IN MY OWN WORDS
Every Thursday from 9:50 to 10:20 am in Numen Lumen Pavilion Sacred Space (110) you are invited to hear members of our Elon community share pieces of their stories, enjoy live music and artistic expression, and share in coffee and refreshments.
This year’s theme for Numen Lumen is “Me: In my own words.” This theme gives speakers the opportunity to think about and share the things that make them uniquely them. When preparing for their Numen Lumen talk, speakers are encouraged to think about questions like:
- What are the experiences or events that have changed the course of my life?
- How do my unique and intersectional identities inform how I show up in the world?
- Are there stories, songs, etc. that have had a profound impact on my personhood?
- What inspires me to live authentically and fully?
- What are the stories from my life that are yearning for a community to hear and to hold them?
Our hope for Numen Lumen this year is to strengthen our community by collectively creating a space where the stories that make us can be shared with courage and received with love. We’re grateful to our speakers for sharing the gift of their stories, their time, and their humanity, and to all who attend for their presence.
For past Numen Lumen recordings, please see the Truitt Center Blog or this YouTube Playlist.
