On Friday our campus community came together as Jesuit schools have done for hundreds of years, gathering at the start of the academic year for the Mass of the Holy Spirit.
 
These photos are via the lens of Noah Morlock ‘25 (morlockprod), one of the many excellent content creators of CHS Digital Media.
 
President Fr. David Ciancimino, S.J., celebrated the Mass, in which we gathered to thank God and to seek the guidance and wisdom of the Holy Spirit for this school year, a tradition of Jesuit academic institutions that dates back to 1548.
 
Concelebrants of the Mass were Director of Campus Ministry Fr. Chuck Frederico, S.J.; Assistant to the President Fr. Richard Zanoni, S.J.; Assistant to the Principal Fr. Edward Durkin, S.J.; and CHS Trustee Fr. Jason Downer, S.J., who is the Superior of the Canisius, LeMoyne and McQuaid Jesuit Communities.
 
Students participated in the Mass through readings and responses, choral and instrumental music and as candlebearers and crossbearer. The Mass also included a tribute to Michael Madden '67; you can hear his words in a video posted Friday. 
 
Students and families interested and the excellence only found in a Jesuit education at Canisius – ranked as the Buffalo area’s “Best Catholic School” by Business First – can learn more at canisiushigh.org and by scheduling an on-campus experience at canisiushigh.org/visit
