## Caption

Here are some memorable images from our campus community coming together in historic Scaccia Auditorium for the Mass of the Holy Spirit, a tradition to start the school year for Jesuit academic institutions that dates back to 1548.

These photos are via the lens of Lucas Dembski '24 (dembskiprod), one of the many excellent content creators of CHS Digital Media. 

President Fr. David Ciancimino, S.J., celebrated the Mass, in which our community gathered to thank God and to seek the guidance and wisdom of the Holy Spirit in this  academic year.

Concelebrants of the Mass were Director of Campus Ministry Fr. Chuck Frederico, S.J.; Assistant to the President Fr. Richard Zanoni, S.J.; Fr. Michael Corcoran, S.J. '76 and Assistant to the Principal Fr. Edward Durkin, S.J.

Students participated in the Mass through readings and responses, choral and instrumental music and as candlebearers and crossbearer.

"It's telling that in the Mass today we don't merely celebrate or worship the Holy Spirit," Fr. Ciancimino said in his homily. "Rather, we invoke the Holy Spirit on us, we invoke the Holy Spirit on our school, and on our world."

Students and families interested in our unique campus ministry experiences, CHS Digital Media and the academic, athletic and artistic excellence only found in a Jesuit education at Canisius can learn more at canisiushigh.org and our Open House on Oct. 15 or 16.

This place is special. Let us show you why.
