The Living Insights Center welcomes each individual as a sacred being. We honor each person’s right to see Reality in whatever way he or she chooses, and we hope to support each individual’s spiritual path in every way possible. We honor all religious traditions and modern spiritual systems, and we have sanctuaries presenting a comprehensive spectrum of those traditions. Many people find their spiritual family and home here, and feel it’s the safest place they have ever been. Many also say this is the most sacred place they have ever been. We welcome everyone to commune, meditate, pray, read, or shop with us. Our Center points everyone to the one Source we all share, while also celebrating the diversity of humanity’s spiritual experience. We believe spirituality should bring everyone together, rather than be a cause of disagreement. God can be visualized as a clear light, and when that light shines through the prism of human consciousness it spreads into all the colors of the rainbow. Each of us has our own unique color, each color is just as much a part of the rainbow as all the others, and all the colors ultimately will return into the clear light. We aspire to present every possible way to experience transcendent states of being and connect with the Ultimate Reality, whether it be called God, Brahman, Jehovah, Adonai, Allah, the Creator, the Source, the Great Spirit, Father Sky and Mother Earth, the Goddess, nirvana, enlightenment, or something else. We have functioning sanctuaries devoted to a comprehensive spectrum of religious/spiritual traditions, and we also present nontraditional spiritual experiences (including many involving sacred sound). We offer spiritual experiences, information, insights, and other forms of support, and we offer both personal attention and a thriving community atmosphere. Our Center combines aspects of a temple, a community center, a spiritual gift shop, and a library, but perhaps most of all it’s a sanctuary and home. We welcome everyone to commune, meditate, pray, read, or shop with us.
St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church was founded in 1867 by a group of German immigrants. The church became the first English speaking Lutheran church in St. Louis. In 1988, the church joined the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, which was a merger of three different Lutheran churches. The church shares in God's grace and love. We believe that we have been freed by Christ to serve and love our neighbors. St. Mark's has a number of programs for mission and ministry. The church offers meaningful worship services supported by an excellent music program. The various committees on our church council serve the internal and external priorities of the community.
Although Vedantic teachings have influenced prominent Western thinkers for centuries, the formal Vedanta movement in the West was initiated in 1893 by Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902). The swami was the chief disciple of Ramakrishna.Ramakrishna (1836-1886) is one of the greatest mystic saints of India. He realized God first in Hinduism and then practiced Christianity and Islam. After realizing God in different religions, he proclaimed, “As many faiths, so many paths.” Vivekananda represented Hinduism at the Parliament of Religions held at the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago and then disseminated the teachings of Vedanta throughout the United States and Europe. Since then the message of Vedanta has continued to spread in the West under the leadership of the swamis of the Ramakrishna Order of India, a monastic institution with headquarters at Belur Math near Calcutta. The Ramakrishna Order is an important religious and philanthropic organization with branches all over India and permanent Vedanta centers in the United States, Canada, Europe, South America, Australia, Africa, Japan, and other countries. The Order’s spiritual lineage is the ancient Vedantic order of sannyasins (monks) which from the earliest time has existed in India in an unbroken line of teachers and disciples. In America, the twelve Vedanta societies promote the study, practice and teaching of the philosophy and religion of Vedanta, especially as expounded by Sri Ramakrishna and his disciple Swami Vivekananda and demonstrated in their lives.

We believe that a student’s critical awareness of the world and adeptness in oral and written communication provide a lasting basis for professional success and a fulfilling life. By providing solid grounding in English or communication studies, courses in each major develop the skills and perspective that enable students to adapt to change and devise creative solutions to new problems. Optional professional concentrations in broadcasting, journalism, professional writing, public relations, and teacher certification prepare students for specific careers. We also offer internship opportunities and a variety of extracurricular activities. Dynamic classes, a growing number of majors, and the long-term success of our alumni demonstrate the relevance of our programs to a diverse and changing society. Fontbonne students who have majored in English or communication studies have pursued careers in law, advertising, public relations, teaching, business, politics, journalism, and broadcasting.

The ThurtenE Carnival is the oldest and largest student-run carnival in the United States. Each year, the net proceeds from the Carnival are donated to a St. Louis area charity. The Carnival always creates new and exciting memories for all who share in the experience. “Lot Week,” the week leading up to the Carnival, has been declared ThurtenE Carnival Week by the Governor of Missouri. During this week, the Brookings Parking Lot is transformed into a playground for the imagination. The ThurtenE Carnival traditionally attracts well over 80,000 people. This April 11th-13th, the ThurtenE Honorary expects over 100,000 people from both the Washington University and St. Louis community to attend the Carnival. The ThurtenE Carnival brings together over 50 student organizations at Washington University. From Residential Colleges, fraternities, and sororities to religious and ethnic organizations, participation in the Carnival is diverse and abundant. The teamwork of these diverse groups is what brings the Carnival to life. Fraternities and sororities build overwhelming façades and perform original plays for children, while other groups operate carnival games or host a food booth. These efforts contribute to making ThurtenE Carnival a truly unique event.
