Christ\u2019s light to the Church and the world. From baptisms and weddings to moments of grief, guidance, and spiritual renewal, our graduates walk with millions of Catholics through every stage of life. <strong>On June 15, you are invited to help Fuel the Faith by supporting the next generation of compassionate and faithful leaders.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrating the 101st anniversary of our first ordination, this special 24-hour Giving Day honors a legacy of sacred ministry that continues to shape the future of the Church. Today, USML graduates serve more than 11 million Catholics nationwide, including alumni who have gone on to become cardinals, archbishops, bishops, pastors, chaplains, educators, and lay ministers. Through 12 graduate degree programs and 7 certificate programs, we are currently forming students from 15 states and 2 countries to answer God\u2019s call with wisdom, faith, and courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Your generosity provides the essential fuel that sustains this mission.<\/strong> Every gift helps support rigorous academic formation, spiritual development, pastoral preparation, and the daily life of seminarians and lay students preparing to serve the People of God. Together, we can ensure that future generations continue to encounter Christ through well-formed and faithful leaders.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id16818_64347e-a1
