Within this tradition, it has been used to describe the ways each person partners with God to heal the world through their various roles\u2014partner, employee, student, sibling, roommate, co-worker, neighbor, offspring, parent, spouse, etc. This tradition believes we are each called to work for sustainability, justice, equity, reconciliation, and restoration in every aspect of life. At Augsburg, we talk about vocation as thriving. It is how you are inspired, equipped, and empowered to promote thriving in your own life but also in the lives of those around you\u2014your neighbors, family, friends, community, the earth, the water, the critters\u2014all living things!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-w68cb32f32ce39-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w68cb32f32ce39-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w68cb32f32ce39-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sidebarbutton SidebarButton panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><a type=\"button\" class=\"btn btn-default btn-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dl-test\/thrive\/\" style=\"width: 100%; max-width: 320px;\">Learn more about vocation<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-2408-4\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"parallax-text-block panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-2408-4\" ><div id=\"pgc-2408-4-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-2408-4-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_siteorigin-panels-builder panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"6\" ><div id=\"pl-w68c983096c73b\"  class=\"panel-layout\" ><div id=\"pg-w68c983096c73b-0\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-w68c983096c73b-0-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-w68c983096c73b-0-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Programs and Services<\/h2>\n<p>Our work is facilitated through a variety of programs.
