Cultural Pursuits This year Holy Angels has presented a series of special activities to the enjoyment of the students. Long remembered will be the Byzantine Mass said in the vernacular by Father Mohrbachcr, and the Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom sung by the Glee Club. Bishop Henry appeared later in the year to present his story of the Columbian missionary in Korea and the need for more native priests. We were fortunate this fall to have on our stage Mr. Lorand Andahazy and his ballet company demonstrating basic ballet steps and three different types of dance. At the time of Epiphany junior Genesians presented The Other Wiseman. Another highlight of the year was a performance of the Lisowsky Symphonic Orchestra led by Mr. Peter Lisowsky. Father Mohrbachcr blesses the student body before saying mass in the Byzantine Rite. Mr. Andahazy and his entire group take a bow after their The Three VViscmen Jan Carroll.
