What is the ACE American Fellowship Tour?

This summer, 8 graduates of the University of Notre Dame’s ACE program will be riding their bikes across the country to generate awareness of, and foster support for, under-resourced Catholic education.  In the ACE program, these 8 graduates have spent the last 2 years serving in many unique Catholic schools-hurricane damaged, culturally/ethnically/socio-economically diverse, and many that are in danger of closing.  By staying at Catholic schools and parishes along the way, the participants hope to share their experiences in Catholic schools, while at the same time coming to meet the many communities and members of Catholic education along the way.  By meeting the many communities involved with Catholic education, the tour hopes to generate fellowship between the Alliance for Catholic Education and Catholic schools across the United States.
