Lily Thornburg - Sisterhood

     Hi, I'm Lily and I from Seattle Washington. On a business administration major with concentrations, in entrepreneurship, and innovation international business and marketing. I'm involved in new venture lab on campus and the Gonzaga ambassadors' program aside from being a part of Setons of Gonzaga. I really enjoy going on walks, listening to podcasts, and watching sunsets. I'm looking forward to all the fun memories the rest of sophomore year has to hold.      The sisterhood pillar in setons stands out to me the most because of the importance of it in all aspects of what we do at setons. During service I grow so close with my sisters and have really enjoyed getting to know them on a deeper level. I'm also one of this year's social chair so I get to plan all our social events and facilitate our bonding Activities. I thoroughly enjoy our Wednesday meetings where we get to update each other on all things new within the club and our lives. My favorite mome...

Sofia Almy - Service

    Hello! My name is Sofia Almy and I am from Bonney Lake, Washington. I am a Biology major here at Gonzaga, when I'm not studying I enjoy golfing, skiing, tennis, and hiking! I also love reading, and doing crafts like knitting and crochet. Although I'm usually not a huge TV watcher, I've recently watched the Martha Steward documentary and am now her biggest fan. I'm also an avid traveler (29 countries and counting). I have 2 younger brothers and two dogs! I am a part of the fly fishing club, and Delight Ministries here on campus! I am loving being a part of Setons this semester and am looking forward to our retreat coming up!
                                            
    The pillar I am highlighting this week is service! This past semester I was placed at the Isaac Foundation which was the most fulfilling experience. I volunteered during clubhouse hours at the Isaac Foundation, which provides a space for 6th-12th grade students on the autism spectrum and with other special needs or intellectual disabilities to socialize, study, make friends, and explore new interests. Once I got to go on an adventure with some of the kids on the bus to visit a flatstick pub downtown to help them practice ordering at restaurants, crossing the street, and riding the bus! We also did smiles and frowns every week where we would go around the circle and talk about the best and worst parts of our week. I really enjoyed being able to connect with the kids and talk about their days. Overall I have loved volunteering at Isaac Foundation and although I am sad for my placement to be over I am excited to start my new placement for the semester at boys and girls club.
