The Schools of Saint Mary Daughters of Mary Inducts Five High School Students

Saint Mary’s High School students work collaboratively in the community through their devotion to our Blessed Mother.

Five young women from the first-year class of St. Mary’s High School were inducted as Daughters of Mary at a recent Mass celebrating new members of St. Mary’s Rosary Society. Caroline Bardi, Emily DeFalco, Saoirse McNamara, Serene Kwon, and Makenna Fay received medals during the Mass as part of the welcoming ceremony. They continued the celebration with the Rosarians at their annual Communion Brunch.

The Daughters of Mary is the Rosary Society’s junior arm. Both groups “foster devotion to Mary through the prayer of the Rosary and good works that would be dear to her heart.” The girls pray the Rosary together twice a month with other St. Mary’s Elementary School graduates who attend Catholic high schools in our diocese. These young women have assisted at an Open House for our Dominican Sisters Mary, the Harvest Festival, Christmas Boutique, and other parish events. Most recently, the young ladies organized, cooked, and served guests at a very successful Lenten Soup Supper for the community, which began with the Stations of the Cross in Church. Proceeds from the event brought over $1,000 in donations to the St. Mary’s Parish Social Ministry outreach program, Good Samaritan House, which in turn provided middle schoolers in an underserved community with personal toiletries and supplies. The next project will focus on introducing the Rosary to elementary-age students. Congratulations, ladies!
