SECTION IV-CAMPUS MINISTRY PROGRAM<br />

Rev. Pedro Arrupe, S.J., a former Superior General of the Society of Jesus, is<br />

quoted as follows:<br />

Today our prime educational objective must be to form men-for-others; men<br />

who live not for themselves but for God <strong>and</strong> His Christ - for the God-man who<br />

lived <strong>and</strong> died for all the world; men who cannot even conceive of love of God<br />

which does not include love for the least of their neighbors; men completely<br />

convinced that love of God which does not issue in justice is a farce.<br />

A. Pastoral Program<br />

In accordance with the school's objective to form men-for-others the Pastoral<br />

Program offers activities which allow the love, which is outlined in the<br />

following quote from Saint Luke, to flourish <strong>and</strong> mature:<br />

"You shall love the Lord your God<br />

with all your heart,<br />

with all your soul,<br />

with all your strength,<br />

<strong>and</strong> with your mind;<br />

And you shall love your neighbor as yourself." (Luke 10:27)<br />

Through liturgies, prayer services, retreats, reconciliation days, <strong>and</strong> fast<br />

Fridays, we seek to foster the aforementioned three loves of God, others, <strong>and</strong><br />

self.<br />

b. All-School: The entire <strong>SLUH</strong> community gathers to celebrate allschool<br />

liturgies on the 15Year. For these celebrations students<br />

prepare the liturgy--including the decorations <strong>and</strong> the music-- <strong>and</strong><br />

serve as lectors <strong>and</strong> acolytes. After designing <strong>and</strong> making the<br />
