Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful
and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created
and you will renew the face of the earth.
Lord, by the light of the Holy Spirit
you have taught the hearts of your faithful.
In the same Spirit help us to relish what is right
and always rejoice in your consolation.

We offer our sincere thanks to the entire Xavier family for once again being incredibly generous to support our students and staff. Xavier Day raised $190,010! All of the donor challenges were met and we set several new records.
We enjoyed celebrating Xavier Catholic Schools all week with our new spirit week. Xavier Day provided a great climax and the Xavier Day gathering provided a fun and COVID-friendly way to come together. We thank our XMS jazz bands for providing the wonderful entertainment and Pura Vida and Scoops food trucks for the delicious food.
Thank you, Xavier nation, for being a part of #XavierDay2021. Go Hawks!
