WELCOME It is an honor to welcome you to the 2020 Trojan Saint Award ceremony, celebrating the spiritual, intellectual and service-based impact of the Catholic Trojan community. We celebrate this event to support our student programs such as our homeless ministry, spiritual and professional mentoring, retreats and Bible studies, while continuing to provide a home-away-from home where all are welcome! Tonight, we gather virtually to honor this year’s Trojan Saint and dear friend, Kevin A. Shannon.

The Trojan Saint Award honors those who have given themselves wholeheartedly to the service of others while faithfully bearing witness to the importance of faith in one’s life. Kevin has embodied the spirit of a Trojan Saint throughout his life - in his work, in his family, and in his friendships. His leadership as our Advisory Board Member and his commitment to our students and our university is unparalleled. His love for his Catholic faith is an inspiration for our students and for each and every one of us. Please join us tonight in congratulating him on this special recognition.

I am grateful for your generous support of this celebration, especially during these most challenging times. Thank you for your investment in the lives of our USC students.

I hope you enjoy this wonderful event. Please be assured of my prayers for you and your loved ones.

God Bless and Fight On!

Father Richard Sunwoo pastor, our savior parish and usc caruso catholic center

ke v i n a . s h an non

We are honored to recognize Kevin A. Shannon ‘81 this evening with the 2020 Trojan Saint Award. We are blessed by his generosity, leadership, and being an ambassador for our Catholic Trojan Family. Kevin joined our Advisory Board in 2011, and is passionate about the mission of the USC Caruso Catholic Center and Our Savior Parish.

Kevin’s professional affiliations include: Industrial and Office Park Development Council (Silver Flight), Urban Land Institute (ULI) Executive Committee, and the USC Lusk Center for Real Estate. Some of his personal affiliations include: Advisory Board Member at USC Caruso Catholic Center, supporter for the Missionary Sisters in Central America, and Board of Directors, Catholic Big Brothers, Big Sisters. Kevin and his lovely wife Britta are the proud parents of four children: The oldest, Patrick, is currently attending USC. Their Catholic faith and love for USC are unparalleled.

Kevin truly is a Trojan Saint! When Fr. Richard Sunwoo asked Kevin to be this year’s honoree, he joyfully welcomed the opportunity to share the good work and mission of the Caruso Catholic Center with his family, friends, and peers. It is our distinct pleasure to recognize this inspiring Catholic Trojan leader for his example of faith, service and legacy at USC.

In Memory of

Annette Shannon-Bantinovich (1935-2020)

Honorary Trojan Saint For her faithful service to

futhering the mission of the church We are God’s masterpiece,

created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

-Ephesians 2:10

Dearest Mary,

At day’s long journey’s end, You come to my bed;

You envelop me with your mantle of blue.

You graciously inquire

May I join you in you Trinitarian prayer?

Feeling so unfettered and favored I reply in rapture: Please!

Then together two synchronized hearts beat: Praise, praise, praise to the Father Glory, glory, glory to the Son

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia to the Holy Spirit.

Then huddled under, I fall asleep.

- Annette Shannon-Batinovich

PRAYER Father of Mercy, Through your generosity you gave us what is most precious, your beloved Son, Jesus.

Thank you for your gift of life and for loving each of us into being.

As loving disciples of Jesus, we lead lives that strive to make a difference in the world.

Where there is hatred, we live love; where there is despair, we enliven hope; where there is doubt, we share our faith.

You call us to be good stewards of your blessings and unselfish caretakers of the mission you have entrusted to us here at USC. May our faithful and generous hearts bear witness to the love of Christ, your Son, leaving no member of our Catholic Trojan family in doubt of your goodness or mercy.

We ask this in the name and love of your Son, Jesus, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.

Amen.
