Share Spring Beak With An International Student. During spring break (March 24 – April 4), the Justin-Siena Student Residence will be closed. This means that one or two of our international students may need a host family to open their homes to them. If you are interested in opening your hearts and homes to one or more international students during the spring break, please contact our Director of Residential Life, Aggie Bailey.
Almsgiving, one of the three pillars of Lent, is an important practice through which we can share our abundance with those in need. Change for Our World is our annual charity drive to raise funds for St. Joseph School in Ethiopia. Among the change for Our World happenings are:
