EMU Vision, Mission, Values Statement--
Our Vision: EMU envisions a learning community marked by academic excellence, creative process, professional competence, and passionate Christian faith, offering healing and hope in our diverse world. To this end, we commit ourselves to: do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.
Our Mission: EMU educates students to live in a global context. Our Anabaptist Christian community challenges students to pursue their life calling through scholarly inquiry, artistic creation, guided practice, and life-changing cross-cultural encounter. We invite each person to experience Christ and follow His call to witness faithfully, serve compassionately, and walk boldly in the way of nonviolence and peace.
Our Shared Values: EMU instills the enduring values of our Anabaptist tradition in each generation-- Christian discipleship community, service, and peacebuilding. Together we worship God, seek truth, and care for each other. |
