Dear Benedictine Alumni and Friends,

As the Christmas season approaches, I want to take a moment to share my gratitude and best wishes with you and your families. This time of year invites us to reflect on what matters most: the love of family, the joy of shared traditions, and the hope that brighter days are always ahead. At Benedictine, we are especially thankful for the incredible support and connection of our alumni community, whose generosity and commitment continue to shape the lives of our students.

The holiday season is also a time to think about the impact we can have on others. Whether it’s through small acts of kindness, offering encouragement to someone in need, or simply being present for those around us, each of us has the ability to make a difference. The Benedictine spirit of service and compassion reminds us that we are strongest when we come together to support one another.

May this season bring peace and happiness to you and your loved ones. Thank you for being such an important part of the Benedictine family. Here’s to a joyous Christmas and a New Year filled with hope and continued blessings for all.

Warm regards,

Dave Schroeder '90

President
