We invite you to join us this coming academic year as we celebrate Eucharistic Adoration at the school. Each month on a designated Friday, Eucharistic Adoration will begin with Mass at 7 a.m. in the chapel followed by Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament for the entire school day. Eucharistic Adoration will close with Benediction at approximately 2:40 p.m. We would like to invite parents, grandparents and alumni to sign up for a holy hour during the day to come and pray for the students, faculty, and staff. If you care to just drop in and make a visit to the chapel during the day, you may do that as well. Below is an online sign up form for your consideration. You may also contact Bill or Mary Beth Hinger at bill.hinger@gmail.com or call 614-560-1555.

The Columbus Foundation is now accepting applications from nonprofit organizations for the 2018 Summer Fellowship Program. The Summer Fellowship Program engages the next generation of young leaders in the sector through career-related work. The program places eligible students with Franklin County nonprofit organizations for a 10-week period. Nonprofits benefit from the additional support students provide to a specific program or objective, while students receive valuable experience through their work.
The Nonprofit Application Deadline for the 2018 Program is September 8, 2017.
Blessed Virgin Mary, assumed into heaven to become its Queen, your soul and body made perfect, please pray for fulfillment of my hope of joining you, despite my flawed humanity. Amen.
