“The ashes serve as a reminder of what we are encouraged to do this season – to take a closer look at ourselves.”

Those words were part of today’s homily as Campus Minister Fr. Michael Corcoran, S.J. ’76 celebrated our Ash Wednesday Liturgy in Scaccia Auditorium.

Several students participated in the Mass, including: David Cloyd ’25 (First Reading, from the Book of Joel), Angel Lopez-Castillo ’25 (Responsorial Psalm), Peter Peyser ’25 (Second Reading, from the Letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians), Serge Gonzalez ’25 and Kevin Bridge ’25 (Prayer of the Faithful), Jackson Deet ’25 (crossbearer) and Joshua Monti ’25 and Johnny Esposito ’25 (candlebearers). 

Matthew Bernard ’24, Arcangelo Capozzolo ’24, Matthew Hassenfratz ’24, James Sutton ’24 and Ryan Stravino ’24 were Eucharistic Ministers and also administered ashes. 

Performing during the Mass from our Fine Arts Department were the chorus, orchestra ensemble and guitar ensembles.

The concelebrants were President Fr. David Ciancimino, S.J., Director of Campus Ministry Fr. Chuck Frederico, S.J., Assistant to the President Fr. Richard Zanoni, S.J., and Assistant to the Principal Fr. Edward Durkin, S.J. 

There are many more photos at our Facebook post.
