Aug. 4 is the Memorial of St. John Vianney, patron saint of parish priests and the faculty and staff of St. John Vianney High School, Holmdel, gathered to celebrate their school’s feast day with a special Mass honoring their patron. Father Garry Koch, pastor of St. Benedict Parish, Holmdel, was the celebrant.

The summer staff came together in gratitude and prayer, reflecting on the inspiring legacy of St. John Vianney, also known as the Curé of Ars, the parish priest of Ars. 

As the new school year approaches, the celebration served as a moment to recognize the team’s dedication and to commit to serving others with the same love and integrity exemplified by their patron saint.
