Prayer for Healing and Courage

Merciful God,

In this moment of sorrow and fear,
we place into Your loving hands
all those affected by this tragedy.
Welcome into Your eternal embrace those who have died.
Heal the wounded, comfort those who grieve,
and strengthen all who carry the pain of this moment.

Lord Jesus, You are our Light in the darkness.
When fear overwhelms us, give us courage.
When sorrow weighs upon us, give us hope.
When violence wounds us,
make us instruments of Your peace.

Bless our Ateneo community with healing, unity, and compassion.
May we stand together, care for one another, and never allow darkness to overcome the light of Christ within us.

Through Mary, Mother of Sorrows and Mother of Hope, lead us closer to Your peace.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
May they rest in peace. Amen.

¡Feliz Fiesta, San Ignacio! ¡Feliz Fiesta, Ateneo! 💙💛

Feliz Fiesta, San Ignacio de Loyola!

Today, we honor St. Ignatius of Loyola—pilgrim, founder of the Society of Jesus, and a man whose deep encounter with God continues to inspire generations to seek excellence in service, faith, and love.

"Go forth and set the world on fire."
— St. Ignatius of Loyola

As one Ignatian community, may we continue to become men and women for and with others, discerning God's will in all things and responding with generous hearts.

May the life of St. Ignatius remind us that true greatness is found not in personal achievement but in living Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam—For the Greater Glory of God.

¡Feliz Fiesta, San Ignacio! ¡Feliz Fiesta, Ateneo! 💙💛

𝗗𝗬𝗞 | Kreutz Campus

You've probably seen it countless times—a towering white building rising above Tumaga, proudly bearing the Ateneo seal. It's a familiar landmark to many, yet one question often goes unanswered:

Why is it called the Fr. William H. Kreutz, S.J. Campus?

The answer lies in the remarkable legacy of Fr. William "Bill" H. Kreutz, S.J. Succeeding Fr. Ernesto A. Carretero, S.J., he served as the second President of Ateneo de Zamboanga from 1989 to 2007, leading the institution through nearly two decades of growth and transformation. While the pursuit of university status began during Fr. Carretero's presidency, it was under Fr. Kreutz's leadership that Ateneo was granted university status in 2001, making him the first President of Ateneo de Zamboanga University.

But his vision extended far beyond academic excellence—it also shaped the University's future through the expansion of its campuses.

In 2005, the dream of a new campus in Tumaga began to take shape with its groundbreaking. A year later, in School Year 2006–2007, the Ateneo High School officially opened its doors at the new campus, welcoming its first students. In recognition of Fr. Kreutz's visionary leadership and invaluable contributions, the campus was officially named the Fr. William H. Kreutz, S.J. Campus.

Today, every classroom, hallway, and open space within the Kreutz Campus stands as a testament to a vision that has educated and formed generations of Ateneans. More than just a name on a building, it honors a leader whose dedication helped shape the Ateneo community we know today.

As we celebrate 20 years of the Tumaga Campus, we remember not only the place but also the people whose vision made it possible.
