Eucharistic Ministers Commissioned at Mass of the Holy Spirit at Greenwich
Sacred Heart's first liturgy of the new school year, the Mass of the
Holy Spirit, was a joyful event and brought the entire School together.
The Most Reverend William E. Lori, S.T.D., bishop of the Diocese of
Bridgeport, officiated at the Mass and blessed the group of 22 seniors
who will serve the School this year as Eucharistic ministers.
The Mass of the Holy Spirit is a Mass in honor of the Holy Spirit. It
is a day of great joy for the School and for the newly installed
Eucharistic ministers. After much formation and preparation, the
Eucharistic ministers are commissioned to help the assembly receive the
holy bread and sacred cup. The Mass of the Holy Spirit marks the
opening of the academic year and is a tradition in Sacred Heart
schools, and in most Catholic schools, throughout the world.
The Eucharistic ministers are:
Lara
Abdo, Brianna
Aoyama, Loren Bakshi, Alaina Betancourt, Emily
Bruno, Colleen Considine, Morgan
Davis, Kelly
Donlin, Danielle Giorgio, Libby
Henry, Sarah
Julian, Meg Larson, Janie
Lavin, Emily
Leitner, Cassidy Mara, Clare McCarrick,
Kristen, Lizzy Rosato, Candice
Seeger, Amy
Traver, Keara Stewart, Alison
Whelan
In their capacity as Eucharistic ministers, they will serve at all
School liturgies by distributing the Eucharist. In a larger
sense, they serve as a ministry team at Sacred Heart and are role
models for younger students.
Convent of the Sacred Heart is an independent Catholic college
preparatory school enrolling girls from preschool through grade 12 at
its campus on King Street in Greenwich. For more information,
