July 2026 / Issue #1

Dear XCP Moms,

My name is Kelli Grove, and I am honored to serve as your 2026–2027 Mothers' Guild President. Whether you're a returning Xavier mom or joining our community for the first time, welcome! I'm excited for the year ahead and the opportunity to connect with many of you.


At the heart of Mothers' Guild is a simple mission: fostering a community where faith, friendship, and service flourish. Rooted in our shared values, we are committed to creating meaningful opportunities for connection, fellowship, and engagement while supporting one another throughout our daughters' Xavier journey. There truly is a place for every mom, whether you enjoy planning events, volunteering behind the scenes, attending social gatherings, or simply building lasting friendships within our Xavier family. 


As we look ahead, Mothers' Guild presents Xavier’s Annual Dinner & Auction, Sweet Home Arizona, on November 14. More than a fundraiser, this special evening is a celebration of our community. We bring together parents, alumnae, faculty, staff, and friends in support of the school's mission and the young women we're privileged to serve.


To stay informed throughout the year, read the monthly Mothers' Guild Gazette, follow us on Instagram @XCPMothersGuild, and visit the Mothers' Guild website, your hub for event information, volunteer opportunities, social gatherings, and grade-level resources.


Thank you for being a part of this extraordinary community. I look forward to meeting many of you in the coming months and working alongside you to make this a year filled with faith, friendship, service, engagement, and Gator spirit.


Kelli Grove
