SHSST Hosts Multicultural Mass and Culture Fair: ECS Students Engage Milwaukee Youth with Global Church Experience

SHSST Hosts Multicultural Mass and Culture Fair ECS Students Engage Milwaukee Youth with Global Church Experience

On October 2, ECS students will host a multicultural Mass in the main chapel at SHSST. Joining them will be approximately 150 students and chaperones from Milwaukee area high schools. Funded by a grant from the Catholic Community Foundation, SHSST is reaching out to local teachers, religious education directors, catechists and campus ministers to find ways of giving young people a wider experience of the international Church. One of the first components of that outreach is the invitation to the Multicultural Mass. After, ECS students will talk to the high school students about their ministries and the Church in their home countries.
 
On October 4, ECS students will host the annual SHSST Culture Fair.  The long-standing event enables the SHSST community, as well as province employees, SCJs and residents at Sacred Heart at Monastery Lake, to experience cultures, traditions and foods from around the world. The fair runs from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. in the SHSST dining room. Hot food stations will be available from noon until 1:00 p.m.
