Prayer & Worship
In addition to daily morning prayer, students have the opportunity to participate in both grade-specific and all-school masses. Communion services are also offered in the Chapel of St. Henry prior to the start of every school day.
Morning Prayer
Prayer is an integral part of our Catholic faith, so much so, that we join together as a school at the beginning of every school day. During morning homeroom, a member of our Liturgy Committee will read aloud over the school's PA system a special prayer to start the day.
Masses
Catholic Holy Days of Obligation are observed throughout the school year, as are other special occasions such as our Memorial Mass, Catholic Schools Week, Ash Wednesday, and Elderfest. The Liturgy Committee, under the guidance of the Campus Minister, plays an important role toward the planning and execution of all-school Masses.
Communion Services
Every school day, students, staff, and faculty members are invited to attend brief services in the Chapel of St. Henry, located off the main hallway of the school building, where extraordinary ministers distribute Holy Communion to those present.

Daily Prayer
Today is the Feast of Saint Agnes, Virgin and Martyr.Read More
St. Agnes,
although you were only a child,
you believed that Jesus was always with you;
help us to remember that he is also with us,
and to remain true to his presence.
St. Agnes,
you refused to give up your faith;
help us to be proud of our faith,
to love it, to be strong in it,
and to give witness to it daily.
St. Agnes,
Patron saint of children,
watch over the children of the world;
keep them safe from harm;
be with them in their hour of need;
and always pray for them.
Amen.
