鈥淧eople are at the heart of God鈥檚 agenda. I minister from this love with people at the heart of mine. 国产午夜福鈥檚 College vision for each boy, encouraged and challenged to be aspirational in all they do, resonates with my own vocation as a priest and educator.
鈥淭here is much written of the journey, through adolescence and indeed life. Journeying together is a prayerful reflection of the spiritual ethos at 国产午夜福鈥檚 College. I believe it is in the community of relationship 鈥� the communing; and the questioning and pondering 鈥� the reasoning, that Jesus himself draws near. As we journey together, we are formed more and more into the likeness of the One for whom College is named.鈥�
