Encountering Grace: A Theological Framework For Faculty And Staff Immersion Programs, John T. Sebastian Ph.D.
Jesuit Higher Education: A Journal
Many international and domestic immersion programs for faculty and staff at Jesuit colleges and universities in the United States have in common the goal of promoting participants’ solidarity with poor and marginalized populations.

Say Something Theological: The Student Journal of Theological Studies
The United States, due to its economic stability and abundant opportunities (among other reasons), has attracted many immigrants from across the globe, but particularly those from Latin America.

Incarnational Immersion-Based Learning In Cultural Contexts: A Charity Model, John Trokan
Journal of Catholic Education
The Religious Pastoral Studies and Behavioral Sciences Departments of a Midwestern college have collaborated in offering academic courses in theology and anthropology that include service immersion experiences with people of diverse cultures in South Dakota, North Carolina, New Mexico, Kentucky, and Honduras.
