The fullest response to the Christian experience of God in Christ is to serve others.
St. Paul reminds Christians in his Letter to the Corinthians that faith without the love of others renders faith “a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal” (Corinthians 13:1).
Therefore, the school is committed to living out Christ’s call to serve others and work for true justice in the world today.
