The Arc/k Project is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with a mission to digitally archive that which is too valuable, too important, and too unique to be lost or forgotten. We envision the creation of a sustainable archival quality process to counter the threats and destruction of treasured objects and locations due to war, iconoclastic movements, poverty, neglect, climate change and even vandalism as some conspire to rob humanity of its collective culture as well as memory. To preserve our global heritage, we seek to capture and archive culturally and historically significant objects and locations via emerging modern digital formats including 3D imaging as well as the immersive technologies of augmented and virtual realities. With a goal to achieve the highest archival quality accuracy and authenticity, we are promoting the science of photogrammetry to populate the data for our digital formats. We are now looking to collaborate with like-minded individuals, museums, organizations and academic institutions to create case studies using the photogrammetry process to digitally archive and preserve objects and locations via grants or volunteer work. Also here is Arc/k's mission statement as it's laid out in our Articles of Incorporation -- "The specific purpose of this corporation shall be to preserve cultural assets across geopolitical regions, religions, races, and political borders, and to carry on other charitable activities associated with this purpose as allowed by law."

Life at Living Nazareth is not just about education but formation of the whole person (intellectual, human, and spiritual), accomplished primarily through the culture and spirit of the school, which fosters and promotes the contemplative life, especially through spiritual direction and daily Mass. We insist on a schedule that is not burdensome or exhausting, prioritizing a spirit of silence and a sense of wonder while allowing students valuable time with family and ample freedom to explore their own good pursuits. We aim to lead students to view learning properly as leisure rather than a task that begins and ends with the school day, and foster a spirit of gratitude in understanding that the gift of knowledge is something to be cherished rather than a burdensome checklist to dispense with as soon as possible. Students are likewise entrusted with great responsibility for disposing themselves well to receive this formation. Just as well cultivated soil may produce a variety of plants, so do well disposed students blossom and bear fruit in a variety of ways. No one way is given priority over another but all are rightly recognized as unique notes in a symphony composed by God, one that all well formed students will have ears to hear and in which they will justly delight, moving them to return thanks and praise to their Creator, at once both the majestic Author of that joyous harmony and their closest and dearest Friend.
