Opening Goodness! The opening Mass this year was spiritually uplifting. Be- tween Father Fisher ' s humor and the solemnity of commu- nion, everyone became in- volved, and St. Joe was, for the first time, a family. Junior Ja- net Kass felt that It was great to see so many people getting involved in the Mass, especial- ly the increase of Eucharistic Ministers. Al Nicgorski concurs. The participation of the student body in the Eucharistic Minis- try program and in the liturgy itself seems to have improve from previous years to an im- pressive level. And indeed, it was impressive. The faculty, the staff, the students — all seemed ex- tremely happy in such joyous celebration. Even non-Catho- lics seemed to feel very com- fortable in the environment. David Medow commented that It was a good chance for me to revive the spiritual aware- ness I lost over the summer. Although it was only his sec- ond Mass, Father Fisher com- municated a true feeling of, well, holiness. I was very im- pressed with the participation — well, the whole faculty was; people were very reverent for being in a gym, said he. Clearly, everyone enjoyed the Mass. All classes felt at home; timid freshmen and bra- zen seniors lost all differences and came together in GOD. Rosie Riordan was moved. Basically, everyone was quite impressed with participa- tion and happiness in general. Mrs. Hartzer sums it all up : I thought it was one of the most positive moments of prayer we ' ve had in the five years I ' ve been here. Holy Preparation! blesses the feast.

' Circus World Gee, it was real neat! was Jon Kuruzar ' s thought on Spir- it Week. The week opened up on Monday with the Sopho- mores and the Supermarket theme. On Tuesday the Juniors came dressed as Greasers. On Wednesday it was the Fresh- men ' s day in the light when they dressed up to their theme Beachwear. Thursday was school spirit day where the whole school united and and dressed as the Romans in to- gas. Friday was the day for the Seniors to be Under The Big Top. The variety of themes be- tween the classes made Spirit Week one of the best in a long time. Spirit Week at school came to a dramatic ending with a crazy pep rally. Back in time. Pam McCourt, Alison Tragesser, Katherine Lamon, Janet Kass, and Meghan Harshman relax in their convertable. Friday night was special not only for the 12 members of the Homecoming Court, but for the whole school.
