In the Footsteps of Benedict, Francis and Clare of Assisi

If you have a passion for discovery, consider joining us for an incredible learning journey as we retrace the footsteps of Saints Benedict, Francis of Assisi and Clare of Assisi.

This study abroad program, offered by the Regent University School of Global Leadership & Entrepreneurship, will take you to some of the most significant sites of our Christian history and examine, firsthand, the dynamics that changed the world.

  • Retrace the footsteps of Saint Benedict, Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Clare of Assisi.
  • Explore key historic sites through private tours.
  • Examine biblical perspectives, archaeology, theology, religion, humanities and the arts.
  • Gain spiritual insights and a deeper understanding of biblical leadership and its contemporary applications.
  • Enjoy the program as a leisure traveler or enroll for optional graduate-level credit (M.A. or Ph.D.).
For the first few years, the Leadership Study Abroad Program concentrated on the work, ministries and leadership of the Apostle Paul in Asia Minor and Greece, covering most of the sites of Paul's first, second and third missionary journeys. The 2008 PROGRAM takes us to Italy, where we will walk in the footsteps of Saints Benedict, Francis of Assisi and Clare of Assisi.
