Spiritual Formation PDF Print E-mail

The Integral FormationSM method of education aims to help students fulfill the mission for which they were created, developing a deep, personal and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. Christ becomes the ultimate motive for all the student's choices and actions. The student's intellectual and human growth comes to perfection through God's grace and the student's spiritual efforts. The goal of the spiritual formation program is to help students develop an authentic spiritual life, such that:

  • God, the Church, and others are a reality in their lives.

  • They are convinced of God's love for them.

  • They know God has given them life for a purpose and they strive to know this purpose and fulfill it.

  • They know Christ's supreme commandment is love, and they strive to love God above all things and their neighbors as themselves.

  • They know love without action is sterile and meaningless.

  • They love Mary, the saints, the Church, and the Holy Father.

  • They know, are faithful to, and are able to explain and support the Church's teachings.

  • They are actively engaged in the ongoing task of forming their intellect, passions and emotions, free will, and conscience.

  • They live a sacramental life and participate in opportunities to grow in the spiritual life. They pray and strive to live a life of holiness and grace.

  • Their thoughts and actions are influenced by a Christian view of the human person and of the world.
