One of the joys of being a Jesuit . . . seeing the young men at our schools grow and succeed. Looking forward to seeing these athletes compete one more time on Friday! #beajesuit

The death and resurrection of Christ proclaims that love is the central animating feature of life. Sadly, all of us—Christians and non-Christians alike—make the mistake of idolizing power far too often. Christ’s love brings us back to the real heart of the world.

We have a great group of young men in the Class of 2022 ready to take the reins at DSJ. I’m glad to have taught many of them, and will pray for them going into their senior year! #dsjontherise https://t.co/O3LVqm2hV1

An approach to DEI with excellent guiding principles:
(1) Treat people like human beings, not political abstractions.
(3) Criticize to uplift and empower, never to tear down, never to destroy.
(3) Root everything you do in love and compassion. https://t.co/nEOVcmIl9b

Fr. Hill, SJ and I made this short video for our students as a reminder about the consequences of breaking social distancing. In case you are wondering: I'm fine.

A little quarantine fun—with a serious message—from the Jesuits at SLUH (and a little help from De Smet, too).
