Message from the President

Opening of Academic Year 2025-2026
Sacred Heart College of Lucena City, Inc.

Peace and blessings to each one of you!

With grateful hearts, I warmly welcome you our dear students, parents, and lay mission partners to Academic Year 2025-2026 here at Sacred Heart College of Lucena City, Inc., your second home.

This year holds profound significance for the entire Catholic Church as we celebrate the Jubilee of Hope 2025. As pilgrims of hope, we are invited to journey together in a spirit deeply rooted in the Gospel and animated by the virtues that define our Vincentian identity. This is not merely a journey toward a destination, but a sacred path of transformation. As Vincentians, we do not walk alone; we walk with persons living in poverty situations, with one another, and with Christ who journeys with us.

Guided by our Vincentian Charism, passed on to us by St. Louise de Marillac and St. Vincent de Paul, and inspired by the love of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the life-witness of our foundress, Hermana Fausta Labrador, we recommit ourselves to Vincentian excellence, compassionate service, and transformative education.

To our returning students and lay mission partners, welcome back! Your continued presence strengthens our shared mission. To our new students and parents, welcome home! May you find here not only a place of learning but a vibrant community of faith, compassion, and service.

Let us move forward with hope and courage, embracing a spirit of synodality as we journey and discern together. As new paths and opportunities unfold, may we grow in innovation, collaboration, and mission-driven service.

As we embark on our Jubilee journey this Academic Year 2025-2026, may God bless our minds, hearts, hands, and feet, that we may become true instruments of His love, mercy, and peace in our community.

May the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus live in our hearts.

- Sr. Leny Soriano, DC
