Let nothing disturb you,
Let nothing frighten you,
All things are passing away:
God never changes.
Patience obtains all things.
Whoever has God lacks nothing;
God alone suffices.

NEW! Xavier Business Directory
Our Xavier Alumni and Family community is blessed to have a variety of businesses that support and strengthen Xavier Catholic Schools, and the Fox Valley. To help promote and acknowledge this group, we have created the “Xavier Business Directory”.  If you are a current or alumni Xavier family with a business, we want to add you to this directory.   Click here  to go directly to the form to include your business.
If any Xavier supporter is looking for a good or service, we encourage you to check the Xavier Business Directory first to see if there is a Xavier family who has a business providing the product or service you desire.  Click here to see the listing of Xavier businesses.
We have wanted to start this Business Directory for some time and this unprecedented situation pushed us to fast-track this initiative.  We all feel the need to support one another right now and our hope is that we can help alert supporters to Xavier businesses and help businesses survive, and hopefully thrive, during this uncertain economic climate.
