Meet ACE Advocates' New Director

Dear ACE Advocates Community and Friends of ACE,

I am delighted to announce that one of the most relentless, effective, and joyful Advocates for Catholic education that we all know – Sarah Greene – has accepted the position as the new director of ACE Advocates! We have been so blessed in our movement with all of your gifts – the gifts of so many energetic, talented, inspiring, and zealous supporters of Catholic schools. We could not have a director of Advocates more in tune with, and more committed to, the mission about which all of us care so passionately!

As you know, Sarah has given no less than most of her recent life to the ACE mission! Placed as a member of ACE 13 at McGill-Toolen High School in Mobile, AL as a high school English teacher, Sarah taught freshmen and seniors in one of ACE Teaching Fellows's original dioceses. For the past five years, Sarah has served on the ACE Teaching Fellows pastoral staff, supporting with incredible pedagogical and pastoral insight, and a ceaselessly encouraging personality, ACE teachers in Arizona, Washington DC, Virginia, Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. During these years, Sarah has also been a bedrock member of the South Bend Regional Network of ACE Advocates, where she has also served as communications chair and, this past year, as regional chair. Most importantly, through all of these positions, Sarah has brought a vibrant faith in Christ as the center of her life and the ACE mission, an untiring (and contagious!) hope in the future of Catholic schools, and an ultra-generous love for all her fellow disciples with whom she shares this ministry and mission.

So please join me in welcoming Sarah as she begins her new ministry as director of ACE Advocates!

May God continue the works of freedom and salvation in each of our lives through these Lenten days. Onward to the challenges of the Cross, and the triumphs of the Resurrection, as they are making themselves manifest in our lives!

Yours in ACE,

Fr. Lou DelFra, CSC
Director of Pastoral Life
