A Decade of Blessings
With this Report, I mark the conclusion of my 10th year as president
of this extraordinary institution – and what a decade it has been! It
is an opportunity to look back at many important milestones, and
as I do so, I am overcome by just how immensely blessed Gonzaga is.

 13     REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT 2019
National Spotlight

  Mission & Ministry
  In 2018-2019, the Office of Mission and Ministry hired three
  professional staff members, implemented weekly meetings
  within Gonzaga’s Catholic community, coordinated
  Adoration events, and introduced the Lumina Vitae Retreat.

  The Bulldog Athlete Ministry, a weekly, nondenominational
  Christian ministry, invites athletes to share their faith and
  walks alongside them in centering God in their lives. During
  this year, Mission and Ministry expanded on its Faith and
  Justice focus with programs such as the Westborough
  Baptist Protest Interfaith Vigil, which saw more than 200
  attendees, the New Zealand Mosque Shooting Vigil, and
  various other opportunities for liturgies, vigils, service,
  interfaith ministry and cross-university collaboration.
