Spiritual Life

Jesus’ teachings are the inspiration and model for St. Mary of the Assumption High School. We are committed to the spiritual growth of our students. As such, the programs and services offered by the religion department and parish priests strive to develop each student’s awareness of their unique relationship with a loving God.

Parish priests are available to students for individual counseling and to respond to the spiritual and developmental needs of each member through liturgical and Para-liturgical celebrations.

In addition to formal religious instruction, the spiritual needs of our students are met through the following liturgical experiences:

Home-room liturgies
Opening-of-school mass
Student and Faculty “Days of Reflection” and Retreats
Thanksgiving Prayer Service
Christmas Para-Liturgy
Ash Wednesday Service
Lenten Prayer Services
Penance Services
Ring Day Religious Service
Prom Mass
Catholic Schools’ Week Celebrations
Baccalaureate Mass
Community Service
Morning Prayer
