Archbishop encourages next generation of students
Archbishop Gomez encourages next generation of Catholic students at Thomas Aquinas College
At a 50th anniversary celebration for Thomas Aquinas College, Archbishop José H. Gomez encouraged students to “recover the truth of the imago Dei, the truth that creation and history have a divine direction and purpose.”
“In this moment in our society and culture, I think we can all see very clearly the essential need for higher education that is truly and distinctly Catholic,” he said in his homily at the Mass of Thanksgiving, held Sept. 26 in in Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel on the College’s California campus with more than 500 students, faculty, and board members.
