Where is Belmont Abbey College?

We’re just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina, near the US Olympic Center Whitewater training center and only about 15-20 minutes from the international airport. We’re a Catholic, Benedictine college founded in 1876 with a campus registered in the National Register of Historic Places.

What type of training sessions will the Envoy Institute of Belmont Abbey College host—and will they all be at Belmont Abbey College?

We will hold a variety of sessions, ranging from long weekends to one and two-week training sessions during the summers for rising high school seniors and college-age students. We will hold most of them at Belmont Abbey College, which is very convenient to reach by air or car, but we are already being asked to hold our sessions in other locations across the country and will likely hold some shorter seminars and conferences nationwide.

I go to another college. Do I have to go to Belmont Abbey College to be part of the Envoy Institute of Belmont Abbey College and receive Envoy magazine?

No. The Envoy Institute of Belmont Abbey College aims to help all young adults. All you have to do is logon, subscribe, or attend one of our seminars or training sessions.

I’m not Catholic or even a Christian, for that matter. Do I have to be Catholic to be part of the Envoy Institute of Belmont Abbey College?

No. The Envoy Institute will draw from the Catholic intellectual tradition of faith and reason to provide you reasoned, cogent explanations for the positions taught by the Catholic Church to respond to the challenges every young adult faces in the modern world. You may be surprised how reasonable and understandable and helpful these explanations may be to you.

When will your first training sessions and seminars be held?

We are planning for our first one and two-week training sessions during the summer of 2008.

I’m overseas but would like to receive Envoy magazine. What can I do?

You can subscribe to receive pdf downloads. Less expensive than international postage and much faster.
