Unity & Belonging
Oneness 鈮 Sameness
We are One in the Lord. However, we are not all the Same. This concept is the quintessential foundation of our definitive goal to celebrate multiculturalism, egalitarianism, diversity, and unity.
Kingdom Diversity encourages you to share in our mission, which is to enhance the culture of the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor by creating a sense of belonging that holds Genesis 1:27 (Imago Dei) as its primary focus.
- So God created mankind in His own image,
in the image of God He created them...
It is on this premise that we build a connection with our students, and invite them to share the aspects of their lives that make them uniquely who they are. We endeavor to complete this mission through the nurturance of family, community, culture, faith, and love.
