The faith community at Christ the King Chapel and the Loyola Hall Jesuit community celebrated its annual Thanksgiving Day Mass and Open House Brunch.
Four generations of alumni, family, friends, students and the chapel’s parishioners celebrated Thanksgiving Day Mass before attending brunch in Loyola Hall, the Jesuit residence. The chapel faith community makes a special effort to invite the many students who remain on campus during the holiday break, especially international students who have never celebrated Thanksgiving Day.
In addition to a delicious meal in the Loyola dining room, students were provided with all sorts of grocery items to help them stock up during the campus shut down. Rev. Fred Betti, SJ, university chaplain, noted, “This is a wonderful way in which we’re building a strong faith community for our students, alumni and our Chapel parishioners.”
