Weekly Liturgies

Once a week, students in first through eighth grade participate in the celebration of the Mass. Weekly liturgies are celebrated on Wednesday mornings at 9:00 a.m. at Holy Family Church, located adjacent to the school.

Classrooms are assigned, on a rotating basis, in regards to the role of planning and preparing for each weekly liturgy.  Students are afforded the opportunity to serve as lectors, cantors, altar servers, and gift bearers for their particular liturgy.

Kindergarten students attend Mass during the second semester. Students have the opportunity to receive the sacrament of reconciliation, the blessing of throats, reception of ashes, and participate in the Stations of the Cross.
 
If school is in session on a holy day of obligation, students will attend Mass that day.

Our opening school liturgy for the 2010-2011 school year is on Friday, September 3.  Please check back for the schedule of masses for the remainder of September.

Please read the following letter from Mrs. Rosner regarding our school liturgies.

Dear Parents and Family Members,

Thank you for your continued participation in our school's liturgies.  Your presence reinforces the importance of gathering as a school community to celebrate mass.  The school mass is a vital part of our faith formation.  Teachers use this shared experience in their religion classes as well as other teachable moments throughout the week.  We would like to remind our families that our students need to sit with their classmates and teachers.  Several designated areas are available for your sue.  Please ask if you need assistance locating the parent/family areas.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.
