Father Patrick Armano, School Chaplain, celebrated Mass this morning in the Chapel of St. Augustine with faculty and staff who were back on campus today in preparation for the arrival of students next week. On this Feast Day of Saint Bartholomew, Fr. Patrick read a reflection from Pope Leo XIV focusing on Bartholomew and the mission of the apostles. "Like Bartholomew, every student is someone whom Christ calls by name. May our schools help them to 'Look to Christ! Come closer to him!' and discover the truth, freedom, and vocation for which God created them."
