Dear Brothers:
Bro. Steve Glodek continues with intensive speech therapy at a rehabilitation facility near the community in Philadelphia. He will probably be discharged this weekend and will continue therapy on an outpatient basis. I ask for prayers for Steve and all brothers who are ill. Let's continue to pray for one another during this graced season of hope and anticipation.
VIDEOS
As part of our development efforts, we have produced short videos of Marianist ministries in India and Africa. The videos were produced by Jan Dixon, editor of ALIVE magazine, in conjunction with the UD Media Production Group. I encourage you to watch them at the links below.

Dear Brothers:
On Tuesday morning, Dr. Daniel Curran announced his retirement as president of the University of Dayton, effective June 30, 2016. Read UD's news release, which includes a video of his announcement.
This timeframe allows for a diligent and measured search for the next president of the university. More information will be forthcoming as it becomes available.
There will be many opportunities over the next 18 months to express our gratitude to Dr. Curran. Let's keep him and his work at the university in prayer.
Fraternally,
