“I have had the privilege of witnessing first-hand the vibrant faith and passionate community spirit at the Battle Creek Area Catholic Schools. Whether it’s been through celebration of the Mass or visiting classrooms or participating in the recent dedication ceremony of the new St. Philip Parish Hall, it is evident that the entire BCACS family has an unwavering commitment to excellence. Catholic School education is an essential mission of the Church and a vital part of the educational ministry of the Diocese of Kalamazoo. I am so pleased and grateful for all those in our Catholic community who offer their steadfast support and unwavering commitment to the Catholic schools. It is here, in these very schools, where we begin to help plant the seeds for the growth of our Church and future Church leaders.”
The Most Reverend Paul J. Bradley, Bishop Diocese of Kalamazoo
