Dead Men Don’t Call

Pope Benedict XVI has proclaimed the Year of the Priest to mark the 150th anniversary of the death of St. John Vianney, the Curé of Ars.

It’s appropriate that Tim Drake’s story on the year is in this issue, our Easter issue.

One of the proofs that Christ is alive is that he is still calling men and women to give their lives to him totally. And they are responding.

It’s an ongoing sign of the power of the Resurrection.

President

The Saint Leo University Board of Trustees invites applications and nominations for the position of President. The new president will succeed Dr. Edward Dadez, who first joined Saint Leo University in 2000, became president in 2022, and is retiring. President Dadez’ leadership has provided stability and enhanced financial sustainability.

Waiting with joyful hope for the dawn of Easter morning.
