AY OF LIFE I will pray, I will love, I will honor, intones Rosemary Richard, as she prays to Our Blessed Lady, so beautifully portrayed by Ana Brent. These are a few words taken from the pageant presented by the Sodality on the Feast of the Holy Rosary, which encouraged A.H.A. students to pray the rosary daily. Before establishing the new unit system in the Sodality, officers Margie Boesch, Suellen Tennyson. Jessie Mae Bergeron, and Conola Blazio consult Father Hatrel, S. J., director of Union of High School Sodalities, for advice in adopting this new system. In unity of prayer before Our I.ady's grotto, the student body gathers to form the impressive living rosary and mingle their prayers and intentions to offer them to our Lady for blessings on the school year. vi, Only the spirit of giving could have placed such truly happy smiles on the faces of these Sodalists. Each year, the Sodality sponsors a food drive in which it distributes one hundred food boxes to the poor on Thanksgiving eve. 87
