�The Edmund Rice Community and all ACND students are committed to living the Gospel message of Jesus Christ through service and prayer,� said ACND�s coordinator of student services, Christian Brother Jason Ford. �This event helped to remind our students that there are men and women who have sacrificed much for people they have never meet, while also responding to the basic human needs of our soldiers.�
