PFIC Honor Circles
Our Honor Circles have been established in honor of our beloved Dominican Saints. In associating gift-giving with the bright lights of the Order, we are emphasizing that there is a real connection between the benefactors and the work done here at the PFIC which goes beyond the mere monetary. There is a spiritual connection as well which unites the Dominicans with the benefactors who are remembered daily in the prayers of the friars. Supporting the school financially is a means of participating in our mission. Without you we are unable to continue our work of preparing leaders to engage our culture with the truth, and by a clear presentation of the faith, showing forth the faith as it truly is, the beautiful and bright light that will restore sanity and health to the world.
The eleven Honor Circles are marked by progressive levels of giving which are accrued cumulatively over a three year period.
