Meet the Pastoral and Administrative Staff

One of the unique aspects of the program is the personal support provided by the ACE staff, a team of former teachers that serves the dual role of administration and pastoral support.

Members of the ACE Pastoral and Administrative Staff stay in regular contact with and visit a number of ACE communities every semester, supporting and challenging ACE teachers in their personal, communal, and spiritual lives. Because we are all former teachers ourselves, we’re able to relate well to the situations of current ACE teachers and the joys and struggles of beginning teaching and community life.
