The HALO Initiative is very pleased to support all the Catholic Schools in Dallas and we encourage you to attend any events that help them to raise funds. Each Catholic school is doing their best to support families in our diverse community and to provide their students with an excellent environment and experience.

This event, An Evening With Father Greg Boyle, leverages relationships across Catholic schools to support Saint Mary of Carmel, a campus that has some of the greatest needs. We look forward to seeing you there where our public charity, The HALO Initiative for Catholic education, will be on-site to share information about how we help to create fresh approaches that can introduce more students to the advantages of Catholic education across the Dallas area.

The speaker Father Greg Boyle has an extraordinary message of compassion, mercy, love, forgiveness, and radical kinship.

A wonderful way to enhance your Lenten faith journey. you will hear how this founder of Homeboy Industries in Los Angeles, the largest gang-intervention, rehabilitation, and re-entry program in the world, has made a tremendous impact.

During Lent, we are called to make the needs of other people our own. One of the central lessons of the cross is compassion; the heavy burdens we carry help us to appreciate the suffering in others. Sharing our material goods is a wonderful way to begin real Christian giving.
