College Opening Mass 2026
In Week 2 our community gathered for the Opening College Mass, a meaningful and hope‑filled way to begin our new school year. Together, we listened to the Gospel of Matthew and the story of the Wedding at Cana
Our core scripture for this year’s Salesian Strenna, “Do Whatever He Tells You – Believers, Free to Serve.”
The heart of this message invites us to listen first: to God, to one another, and to the needs of our community. Just as Mary attentively noticed what was needed at Cana, we are called to slow down, pay attention, and respond with generous hearts.
Our students showed great reverence and respect throughout the celebration, creating a prayerful atmosphere that reflected the unity of our whole College. Coming together in this way reminds us that we begin the year strengthened by our faith, our relationships, and our shared commitment to serving others.
