PRAXIS Student Movement Begins

2888857836_97fd300ef0_tAt a recent conference, someone asked PRAXIS President Alan Waite, “So is your organization a business or an order like the Masons?”  Excellent question. Waite answered plainly “Neither.  PRAXIS is a movement.”

PRAXIS is a movement?  That’s “a pretty bold statement” for a society with just under one hundred members, even though we only opened our doors in September 2009.  Bold indeed, but we believe it, and more than that, we expect our movement to grow significantly in 2010. 

True, few people have heard about PRAXIS so far, but in 2010, that will change.  We will reach across the world wide web, using social networking, and bring our ideas and movement to hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people.  Social networking is in its infancy in terms of outreach, but its power is practically unlimited.  The power of the PRAXIS Way – transcendant truths for achieving genuine happiness and understanding true success culled from two millenia of western (and to some degree, eastern) philosophic, ethical, and moral teachings- combined with the power of social networking means an opportunity for unprecedented growth.  So, we say again, 2010 will be nothing short of thrilling here at PRAXIS.

But in the upcoming year, our outreach will be even broader than utilizing the power of social networking, with radio and television appearances scheduled, workshops in several major cities planned, and interviews slated with a number of public figures that will be published on our website. 

PRAXIS is a movement on the move, and the message we bring to the nation is as important as fiscal responsibility, job creation, good health care, and strong national defense – perhaps even more important for our future. 

The idea of America can only survive if our people re-embrace honesty, integrity, and truth.  With these qualities upheld, affirmed, learned, and practiced, we can and will solve the financial, domestic and international problems that threaten our Republic.  With these qualities once again as the bedrock of our national life, our personal relationships, our commerce, our criminal justice system, our trades and manufacturing, our craftsmen, our governments, our arts, and our educational systems will reverse their decline and reinvigorate, rebuild, and grow.

With this in mind, the PRAXIS Society for Human Integrity announces the formation of a panel to create PRAXIS  chapters at colleges and universities. Target date for the first student chapter is Spring 2010.  Our long term goal is a presence on every college and university by 2015.  Very ambitious, but absolutely possible.

We need your help. 

If you want to be a part of a national movement at ground level, now is the time to step up and join in…if you believe in what PRAXIS stands for and are willing to give of your their time and talents. you can grow with our organization as it expands in the years ahead.   Fire off an email to questions@praxisforlife.org and we’d be happy to talk in more detail about what a posting with PRAXIS is all about.  Remember, however, PRAXIS is not for everyone, and everyone is not for PRAXIS, so part of the process of coming on board is to make sure that the fit is right in both directions. 

AND…if you are interested in starting a PRAXIS chapter at your own college or university, or at an institution close to your heart, shoot us an email.  Can you imagine thousands of college graduates entering the public and private sectors each year, devoted to living out the PRAXIS Way in their vocations and personal relationships?  Can you imagine the impact that will have on our lives, the lives of our children, and the future of our country?  Thousands each year, who in turn influence thousands and thousands more.  That means change. Genuine change. Meaningful change.  Lasting change. 

Yes, PRAXIS is a movement.  Perhaps you are being called to become a part of it?
