Backpack Blessing

August 31 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm

As summer draws to a close and the school year approaches, we invite students, teachers, and families to join us for a special Backpack Blessing during the 11:00 AM Mass on Sunday, August 31.

Bring your backpack—whether you’re a kindergartener or a college student—and receive a blessing to start the academic year with peace, purpose, and God’s grace.

As the founder of the first free Catholic school for girls in the United States, Mother Seton’s legacy lives on in every student who pursues learning with faith and determination!

Come and be part of this joyful moment as we place the school year under the loving intercession of Mother Seton.
