Coming to Holden Village has been a worthwhile experience and adventure for me. Being a medical professional in the “real world” can be challenging and draining at times. Living and working as a remote wilderness medic has been deeply rewarding for me.
When the Wolverine fire bore down on Holden Village in 2015, I was working as a counselor at Christikon Lutheran Bible camp in Montana’s Absaroka–Beartooth Wilderness. I remember dramatic videos and photos of fire appearing on my social media feeds. I had been aware of Holden Village for years, but the summer of 2015 was the first time the community truly worked its way into my consciousness.
Holden Village’s vision is to cultivate a more just, sustainable, and compassionate world.
In a world that is deeply divided and frantically paced, Holden Village welcomes dialogue and questions. Drawing from wisdom shared by teaching faculty and the community, Holden holds space to discern faithful and just responses to the critical issues of our time.
