At Maria College, we stand united in gratitude for Pope Francis — a shepherd whose humility, compassion, and unwavering commitment to the marginalized reshaped the global Church. ⛪

Today, as we welcome Pope Leo, we trust that the path paved by Francis will continue: a path of mercy, care for creation, inclusion, and a Church that listens. Pope Francis has left us in good hands, and we are confident that Pope Leo will carry forward his mission of love and justice with renewed energy and vision. 🫶

Our students, faculty, and alumni join the global Catholic community in prayer for Pope Francis as he steps into his next chapter, and for Pope Leo as he leads us into a hopeful future. Together, we move forward — inspired, united, and strengthened in faith. 🙏

Let us remember that leadership in the Church is not about one person, but about the enduring presence of Christ’s love among us. We are ready to walk forward under Pope Leo’s guidance, holding tightly to the beautiful legacy Pope Francis has gifted us.

On Tuesday, April 22, 2025, the Office of Institutional Advancement hosted its annual Scholarship Reception, bringing together our dedicated scholarship donors and appreciative student recipients. The afternoon was filled with expressions of gratitude and meaningful connections among donors and students. We were honored to hear from Kathleen Santarcangelo of the Julia O. Wells Memorial Foundation, one of our scholarship donors, and Allison Blair, a recipient of a scholarship from the foundation. They spoke about the significant impact scholarships have on our students.
