As members of the Bellarmine community, we are called to live according to a pattern of love and service modeled by Jesus Christ. We do this by setting the needs of the poor and marginalized as the horizon of our vision. Each student is challenged to use his critical skills to help bring about a more just world, to bring about the Kingdom of God. Over the course of four years, all students are invited to participate in immersion activities and are called to service where they work directly with younger children, with the elderly & developmentally challenged and with agencies that make a preferential option for the socio-economically disadvantaged.
