In a piece for the Chronicle of Higher Education, Frank Vellaccio, senior vice president of the College of the Holy Cross, talks about his need for prayer as the College embarks on its major goals for the next five years. Vellaccio says “The Need and the Blessing of Prayer,” by the late Rev. Karl Rahner has been a revelation in ways he never expected.
“As I read, I began to reflect more deeply on the things that will truly add to our students’ educational experience and not only to their comfort or enjoyment,” he writes. “Facing my own doubts led me to consider what is at the heart of our institution.”
