“We all have the opportunity to leave a lasting legacy on this world, whether it is through financial means, giving of our time, or sharing our talents with others who can benefit.  And I feel we have a special responsibility as Christians to pass on the love of Christ to future generations. 

Our Motto “Act Manfully in Christ Jesus” and “I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world” by poet Mary Oliver have always resonated with me. This is why I have chosen Brother Rice as a primary focus as a place where I can help make a difference. This is why I remain engaged throughout the year and plan to leave a legacy donation once I am gone. It’s a great way to have an impact on young men to help make the world a better place. “
