Farewell Mass and Alumnae Induction for the Class of 2023
Thursday afternoon, the entire community came together to celebrate the final Mass of the school year, The Farewell Mass, at Our Lady of Angels Church.
Led by celebrant Rev. Robert Ramser, the Mass reflected on this past school year and celebrated the Class of 2023 as they look ahead to their next chapter. This Mass also celebrated the Class of 2023 as they transition from being a Saint Joseph Academy student to joining the community of more than 18,000 alumnae. Alumnae mothers of graduates were invited to attend and took part in the Offertory Procession.
Isabella Bellini, Kate Boland, Hannah Caruso, Suzanna Fernandez, Lily Kuebler, Clare McCarthy and Molly Mennen served as Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion.
Alumnae Director Ms. Hannah Hill ’16 commissioned the Class of 2023 as they lit the Alumnae Candle and recited the Alumnae Pledge. Each Senior received a St. Joseph Medal, designed by Sr. Mary Southard, CSJ, featuring Joseph on the Journey. This medal is unique to Saint Joseph Academy alumnae.
The Mass ended with the Class of 2023 singing “The Lord Bless You and Keep You” before Vice President of Mission Dr. Jessica Wrobleski concluded with the commissioning of students and faculty and staff who are participating in Summer Service Trips.
