The House of St. John XXIII, named after the beloved "Good Pope," embodies the spirit of pastoral warmth, ecumenical openness, and compassionate service. Known for convening the Second Vatican Council, Pope John XXIII called the Church to throw open its windows to the modern world. The members of St. John XXIII's House, called "Aurums," strive to reflect these values in their daily lives at ESS. In SY 2024–2025, the house has cultivated a nurturing environment through their outreach program "Kalinga sa Musmos na Kabataan," serving Sta. Rita Orphanage. The house also achieved 1st place in the Kasuotang Pilipino competition, 1st place in the SANTUGON Advocacy Video, and 2nd Runner Up in Sports & Cultural for the Mother Seton Cup. Through fellowship, service, and a deep sense of community, St. John XXIII's House continues to form students who are competent, principled, and deeply rooted in Setonian values.
"Consult not your fears but your hopes and dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential."
— St. John XXIII
