Judson University is dedicated to fostering a Christ-centered educational environment that nurtures academic excellence, spiritual growth, and community engagement, empowering students to lead lives of purpose and service.

Join us for Judson University&#39;s 2026 Community Prayer Breakfast, set to take place on Friday, May 15 from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m. in the Lindner Fitness Center. Judson is once again partnering with the Love Family Christian Foundation to host this meaningful event. Our time together will focus on praying for our families, communities, the nation, and our world. &nbsp; Prepare to be inspired by our 2026 speakers, Steve W. Brallier and Lynn G. Beck, distinguished authors of Mitka&rsquo;s Secret: A True Story of Child Slavery and Surviving the Holocaust. Join us on campus to hear them share the incredible true story of Mitka Kalinski, who survived seven years of enslavement&mdash;while still a child&mdash;to a Nazi officer during and after World War II, but found hope through the power of forgiveness.&nbsp; The contributions of one service leader from the community will be recognized with the D. Ray Wilson Volunteer Service Award, while the Bea Wilson Volunteer Award will recognize a youth in the Fox Valley for their community service efforts. We look forward to our morning together!

2026 Judson University Prayer Breakfast

The James Didier Symposium 2026 On Christ and Architecture brings together architects, designers, academics, and students to explore the intersection of architecture, the city, and its inhabitants with Christian faith and worldview. The symposium seeks perspectives that make visible the nexus between architecture as a making discipline and the theologically derived worldviews held by Judson University and its community. This year the conversation follows a single thread: natural law and the built environment, approached from theology, from urbanism, and from practice. Three lectures and a midday dialogue take up the same question from different vantage points, and the day is built to leave room for the argument to develop. Keynote Speaker: Dr. Andrew Walker&nbsp;Dr. Andrew Walker is an American academic, author, and professor of Christian ethics and public theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, where he also serves as Associate Dean.&nbsp; Invited Speaker: Mr. Rodrigo Bollat Montenegro Rodrigo Bollat Montenegro is a Guatemalan architect and the principal of RBM Architecture &amp; Design.
