Mass of Healing – Wednesday

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011 by The Professor

Dear Members of the Loyola Community,

The Loyola University Maryland community will celebrate a special Mass of Healing this Wednesday, Jan. 19, for Gregory Kelly, ’14, who is dealing with an extremely complicated and serious cardiac situation. Greg’s Mass will be celebrated at 9 p.m. in Alumni Memorial Chapel.

I encourage you to join us at this special Mass, because when the Loyola family faithfully gathers together in prayer for ‘one of our own,’ we best embody who we are as a Jesuit university community.

God’s blessings … and my thanks,

Rev. Jack Dennis, S.J.
Director of Campus Ministry
