Best of the Week 2022-2023: Holy Cross Values

ST. ED'S WELCOMES HOLY CROSS SPONSORSHIP VISITING TEAM; ENGAGES IN DISCUSSIONS ON HOW TO BEST

LIVE OUT THE HOLY CROSS MISSION

This week, St. Ed's welcomed visitors from the Midwest Province of Holy Cross, Gilmour Academy, Archbishop Hoban High School, and Cathedral High School for our Holy Cross Sponsorship Visit. Members of the leadership team, department chairs, staff, board of trustees and St. Edward parents met with Dr. Mary Anne Beiting (Consultant for the Midwest Province), Ms. Julie Barthel (Principal of Cathedral High School in Indianapolis), Ms. Whitney Daly (Chief Mission Integration Officer at Gilmour Academy) and Mr. Chris DiMauro (President at Archbishop Hoban High School) to discuss the ways in which our Holy Cross identity and mission are alive in all aspects of our community. The visiting team received a full tour of St. Ed's campus, shared lunch with a select group of Edsmen to get to know our students personally, and popped into a few classes to observe our curriculum in action and see how St. Ed's lives out our Holy Cross charisms every day.

"Our students, faculty/staff members, board members, administrators, and parents live the mission each day, and this week was all about sharing that with our visiting team. As always, our community exuded Holy Cross hospitality and care for our visitors, making them feel welcome and at home during their time with us," says Owen Williams '13. "As I continue in my first year in my new role as VP of Faith, Mission & Culture, this week's Holy Cross Sponsorship Visit provided a wonderful opportunity for our community to spend some time reflecting on the many ways in which the mission of the Congregation of Holy Cross, to educate hearts and minds, continues on with great zeal here at St. Ed's."

Thank you to our entire St. Ed's community on providing a warm, Holy Cross welcome and showing genuine hospitality to our visitors and, most importantly, for engaging in heartfelt discussions and demonstrating a deep dedication to living out the Holy Cross mission.
