"And they recognized Him in the breaking of the bread."

Both of our Marianist high schools commission a selective group of students to assist at the Student Body Masses, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, distribution of Holy Communion to the Sick and Elderly, Midday Prayer and all the other liturgical functions in the schools. Recently the two high schools inducted close to 90 juniors to assist the school and community.

Their families were able to witness their commissioning at one of the high schools.
