Animating The Mission - Resources
We must never forget....that migrants, rather than simply being
a statistic, are first of all persons who have faces, names and individual stories ~Pope Francis
In support of the Xavier Way, Fr Graham SJ has asked a number of heads of centers and academic
programs to come together to create more integrated programming across the campus.
To do so, the group has chosen the theme immigration (including migration and refugees)
for the 2016-2017 academic year.
