First and foremost, the center was formally christened the W.T. and Louise J. Moran Health Center, John S. Dunn Building, in recognition of the two cornerstone gifts making the center possible. Second, attendees celebrated the topping-out of the three-level structure. Among our honored guests at the mid-summer event was His Eminence Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, D.D., S.T.L., Archbishop of Galveston-Houston. The new, multi-faceted clinic, which will offer medical, dental and mental heath services, is scheduled to begin operating this winter. A collaboration of San José Clinic, Catholic Charities of our Archdiocese, and CHRISTUS Foundation, the new health center will dramatically improve health-care access for many thousands of uninsured and under served Houstonians. The center will also serve as the new base for our CHRISTUS Healthy Living Mobile Clinic. CHRISTUS Foundation for HealthCare, W.T. and Louise J. Moran Health Center /John S.

Introduced by R. C. Slocum, long-time friend and coaching rival, Lou Holtz an ESPN analyst and former top-ranked college and professional football coach gave an exceptionally motivating and humorous presentation that kept the audience fully engaged. Lou Holtz shared his coaching and personal experiences including his wife surviving after stage 4 cancer – which helps him truly value the mission of CHRISTUS Foundation for Healthcare. His closing remarks left everyone thinking “WIN”, in other words – What’s Important Now. Read an article published in the March 19 edition of the Houston Chronicle.

Children kept busy with arts and crafts such as ornament making and cookie decorating; and both adults and children were amused by the A.D. Players who performed a comical version of “Do You Hear What I Hear?” Also, Dr. Fox, a Speech Pathologist for the Cronin & Brauer Clinic, entertained the audience with a dog show. And, of course there was Santa Clause, who posed for pictures and asked children what they wanted for Christmas. In addition to the Christmas festivities, the annual party is a reunion for former patients, their families, and the Clinic’s staff to visit and reminisce.
