“When conferences bring together great thinkers around a vital topic, they have the power to shape and accelerate emerging trends, sometimes in an unexpectedly powerful way. With a stunning slate of speakers converging on the country's biggest archdiocese, the inaugural Adeodatus conference promises to be both an intellectual and cultural feast, and a catalyst for the ongoing renewal of Catholic education in America.”
