BLESSED MICHAEL MCGIVNEY BEATIFIED
-
On October 31, we will witness an incredible event. Fr. Michael McGivney, the founder of the Knights of Columbus, and the man that our school was named after, will be beatified during a special Mass Oct. 31 at the Cathedral of St. Joseph in Hartford.
“The first U.S. high school to be named for Father McGivney was opened in the fall of 2012 with 19 freshmen, in the unused wing of another Catholic school in Maryville, Ill. By 2015, the enrollment was large enough for the Father McGivney Catholic High School to open its own building in Glen Carbon. Bishop Thomas J. Paprocki of the Diocese of Springfield blessed and dedicated the building. The school motto is Servire Culturae Vitae (To Serve the Culture of Life).” -
