Opening Mass of the Holy Spirit

The opening Mass of the Holy Spirit, a sacred ceremony that invokes the guidance and blessings of the third person of the Holy Trinity.

The purpose of this special Mass is twofold – to pray for the wisdom, understanding, and discernment of students, faculty, and staff, and to remind the entire school community of their reliance on divine inspiration and assistance. By calling upon the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit, the Mass sets an intentional spiritual tone for the year ahead, fostering a sense of unity, purpose, and openness to the workings of the divine within the academic setting.
