On-Line Prayer Request Service
The Alumni Office of Spirituality & Service invites you to check out, "On Eagles' Wings," our new on-line prayer request service. Available to alumni and friends anywhere, this vehicle enables us to provide a very personal and meaningful service to our alumni - or anyone who has intentions they want lifted up in prayer. Each week requests submitted to On Eagles' Wings will be taken to St. Mary's Chapel where a special candle will be lit and prayers will be offered by the Office of Spirituality & Service. Click here to visit this page and/or to submit a prayer request.

-Father Peter-Hans Kolvenbach, S.J., |
“…As alumni and alumnae of Jesuit schools, colleges, and universities, you are called by the Society of Jesus to be men and women who reflect upon the reality of the world around you with all its ambiguities, opportunities, and challenges in order to discern what is really happening in your lives and the lives of others, to find God there and to discover where he is calling you, to employ criteria for significant choices that reflect Godly values rather than narrow, exclusive self-interest, to decide in light of what is truly for the greater glory of God and the service of those in need, and then to act accordingly.”
