Seamless Garment Speaker Series
Fall Semester Speakers in the Welcome Center during Community Period

Service Barry Gym

Join us for our “Seamless Garment” speaker series, sponsored by the Office of Service & Justice. The late Cardinal Joseph Bernardin coined the Seamless Garment as an expression (drawn from John 19:23) as a way of illustrating the coherence of Catholic teachings on the sanctity of human life, and meant to underscore a “consistent ethic of life.”

Please mark your calendars as we welcome the following speakers on campus:
