Celebrating St. Rose Philippine Duchesne's Feast Day

What a Great Day to be a Pioneer! Our all-school Mass on our patroness's Feast Day included special guests such as DHS parents, Board members, and friends from the Archdiocese's Office of Catholic Education and Formation. Everyone was quite comfortable, thanks to the new folding chairs made possible by a gift from Tina Kelly '88. Fr. John Brockland did a beautiful job with his homily, relating the life of St. Rose Philippine Duchesne to our own. Then he blessed the third-class relic St. Rose Philippine Duchesne medallions, donated to our students and faculty by Ann (Johannesman) Tollefson '76. Each attendee at this holy celebration took home a reminder to live by example, as
St. Rose did.
