Pope Francis led with humility, compassion, a profound commitment to the dignity of every person, and the stewardship of our common home. We are excited to announce that 红桃视频 College will host numerous intellectual programs in celebration of the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope. Prayer Night is a new student-led AQ tradition, which joins around 40 students in prayer.
