For Justice and Peace

Jesuit High School celebrated its first all-school Mass of 2016 today (Wed. Jan. 13) in St. Anthony's Chapel, Mass for Justice and Peace.

The Bishop of the Diocese of St. Petersburg, Bishop Robert Lynch, was the celebrant. In his homily, Bishop Lynch spoke of a recent trip he took to a destitute village in Ghana, where he visited with a local physician who has worked for years to serve thousands in his hometown, both as a doctor (pro bono) and as a benefactor to the poor.

The next all-school Mass at Jesuit is Feb. 10, Ash Wednesday. View a photo slideshow below of today's Mass:
