It’s well over 10 years since Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., introduced the annual Catholic Schools Mass, giving Catholic school students from throughout the Diocese an opportunity to gather as one community for a Mass with their bishop and many of their priests and educators. Such will be the occasion Oct. 10 when Catholic school students from Burlington, Mercer, Monmouth and Ocean Counties, as well as their teachers, parents and chaperones, gather for the 2024 Catholic Schools Mass in St. Robert Bellarmine Co-Cathedral, Freehold. Though the Mass is not open to the public, it will be livestreamed on the diocesan Youtube channel, www.youtube.com/trentondiocese.

The Mass will begin with a procession at 10:15 a.m. in which students will carry flags or banners representing their respective schools. Students from the following schools will participate during the Mass: St. John Vianney High School, Holmdel, bearers of the Papal and American flags; St. Benedict School, Holmdel, will provide the music; St. Leo the Great School, altar servers; Holy Cross Academy, Rumson, readers; St. Raphael School, Hamilton, and St. Mary of the Lakes School, Medford, will read the Intercessions, and St. Paul School, Burlington, gift bearers.
