Jays Enjoy the Season with Loved Ones at Grandparents’ Day Mass

The Chapel of the North American Martyrs, already ornamented for the Christmas midnight Mass, was the site for the annual Grandparents’ Day Mass.
Students and their grandparents filled the Chapel of the North American Martyrs on Saturday, Dec. 10, for Jesuit’s annual Grandparents’ Day Mass.
Mass was celebrated by Fr. Kevin Dyer, S.J., who was assisted on the altar by Fr. Anthony McGinn, S.J. and Fr. Donald Saunders, S.J. Jesuit’s choir provided musical accompaniment.
Afterward, many of the attendees moved from the Chapel to the auditorium for the annual Blue Jay Band Christmas Concert, which was followed by a social in the Student Commons.
