Living the Mission
Seattle University News
November 19, 2008

The world really has come to Seattle University. On Nov. 18, SU hosted the Opus Prize, one of the world's largest faith-based humanitarian awards. The 2008 recipients—Maggie Barankitse of Burundi, Africa, who received the $1 million Opus award, Michael Woodard of Nicaragua and Krishnammal Jagannathan of India—are truly inspiring. Each shared their profound stories at a press conference, a sold-out celebration at Benaroya Hall and on campus during Mission Day.
