Brian Burch, BA ’97, speaks at his alma mater, the University of Dallas

Excerpt from 'A Prayer for Our Government by Bishop John Carroll' (1791)

We pray, O almighty and eternal God, who through Jesus Christ has revealed thy glory to all nations, to preserve the works of your mercy, that your Church, being spread through the whole world, may continue with unchanging faith in the confession of your name.

We pray O God of might, wisdom and justice, through whom authority is rightly administered, laws are enacted, and judgment decreed, assist with your Holy Spirit of counsel and fortitude the president of these United States, that his administration may be conducted in righteousness and be eminently useful to your people over whom he presides; by encouraging due respect for virtue and religion; by a faithful execution of the laws in justice and mercy; and by restraining vice and immorality.

We recommend likewise, to your unbounded mercy, all our brethren and fellow citizens throughout the United States, that they may be blessed in the knowledge and sanctified in the observance of your most holy law; that they may be preserved in union, and in that peace which the world cannot give; and after enjoying the blessings of this life, be admitted to those which are eternal.

Amen.

 

"A man of deep Catholic faith, strong character, and genuine prudence, Brian Burch is a truly outstanding selection to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See. The University of Dallas looks forward to the great work he will perform in this vitally important role, and could not be prouder of him."

Jonathan J. Sanford, President of the University of Dallas

An education aimed at life's most important questions. A campus where friendship blossoms in the sacraments. A deep love of learning flowing from a deeper love of Christ. An education for a life well-lived.

The Core

University of Dallas students share a formative experience in studying the great deeds and words of Western civilization together. The Core, is an opportunity to inquire into the fundamental aspects of being and our relationship with God, nature and our fellow human beings.

The Rome Experience

It’s one thing to read the Great Books, it’s quite another to experience firsthand where many of them took place. In that instant, history comes alive, and our students change forever.  This means our Rome Program is more than just a semester abroad.

The light of the Catholic faith illuminates every aspect of life at UDallas. We support academic and religious freedom and foster spiritual development – no matter the faith tradition – to prepare students for their calling as men and women of faith in the world.

 

The University of Dallas is dedicated to the pursuit of wisdom, of truth, and of virtue as the proper and primary ends of education.
