Founded in the Franciscan values of simplicity, compassion, and respect for all creation, the religious life of Assisi Catholic College is the heart of our community. It shapes our identity, guides our relationships, and inspires us to live the Gospel in everyday life.
Through prayer, liturgy, and service, students develop a strong sense of belonging and purpose. Faith becomes the lens through which we grow—intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually—encouraging us to be agents of peace and justice.
The Franciscan charism calls us to encounter Christ in one another, embrace humility, and care for creation. By integrating faith into daily life, we nurture compassionate leaders who act with integrity and hope.
