Faculty vs. Seniors! During Community Time, our seniors took on our faculty in a friendly game of basketball! It was a close game, but in the end the faculty took the lead, 38-26. It’s always great to see the camaraderie between students and faculty, in and out of the classroom.

Alleluia, He has risen! Happy Easter from Strake Jesuit! May the peace and joy of the Lord be with you today and always! #amdg #wearesj

On Holy Thursday night, our students participated in the Seven Churches Pilgrimage. This ancient tradition, credited to St. Philip Neri, originated in Rome, where the faithful visited the seven Roman basilicas, saying prayers and watching in adoration at each. #amdg #wearesj

The Paschal Triduum begins on Holy Thursday with the Mass of the Lord’s Supper. During this liturgy, we recall the Last Supper and the institution of the Eucharist, in which bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. #amdg #wearesj
