Students explored the ways that they are called to be beacons of hope to others in their world, as well as how Mary MacKillop gave hope to others but when she also needed hope in the most challenging times of her ministry. They spent time exploring the words of Pope Francis and we know, that through their leadership of our College community this year, that they will “…be able to offer a smile, a small gesture of friendship, a kind look, a ready ear, a good deed…” Students spent the afternoon diving into the Project Compassion stories for this year before working together to find ways to raise awareness of and act towards issues of social justice in our world.
