Heartbeat N tba core of love f Eternal Father, we, the members of Sacred Heart Academy unite ourselves with the altar of sacrifice in the mass, and accept the loving kingship of Jesus Christ, your son. over our family. October A marked a day of religious importance for stu- dents and faculty at SHA. Stu- dents signed Act of Consecra- tion cards dedicating them- selves without reservation to the Heart of Jesus. As a symbol of life and love, the class presi- dents brought up roses and placed them in front of the statue of Jesus. Senior Andrea Hughes crowned the statue of the Sacred Heart, and repre- k sentatives from both Pro-life and Student Council planned and participated in the mass. Hurricane Gloria had struck a week before and while most of the students had regained their electricity, the aftereffects of the storm did disrupt Enthronement. The mass went as planned but the celebration was postponed until October 46, for lack of heli- um, balloons and streamers. Fall- ing on the feast day of St. Marga- ret Mary, who was devoted to the Sacred Heart, the celebration was as festive as ever. Radios blared while students laughed over pizza and potato chips. Meanwhile. in the faculty dining room, the teachers feasted on two six-foot long subs, a gift from the Student Council. Fac- ulty members also ate dough- nuts and lemon ice and wore carnations-gifts from the classes. The day's festivities culminated with the colorful launching of helium-filled bal- loons. Because of the signifi- cance that the Enthronement ceremony had for the school, students enjoyed all of the days' events. Many students were so enthusiastic that they wished the celebration could have been extended to yet another day. Gloria excluded! Junior Kathy Malenda com- mented, 'tlt made me aware of SHA's uniqueness.
