2011 Annual Tea and Mass
On Sunday, May 29, 2011 the Loretto Alumnae Association hosted its annual Mass and Tea. The day began with mass in the Loretto Abbey Chapel. After Mass, the group moved to the Senior Cafeteria for some refreshments, fellowship and of course, fun! As always the event was well attended. A thank you goes to all Alumnae, friends and family that were present to share in the day.
A huge thank you to the Loretto Sisters for allowing us to join in their celebration.
The Alumnae looks forward to its next event: The Order of Mary Ward Tribute Evening on Friday November 4, 2011 at 7:00 pm. Past recipients include: Dr. Nancy Olivieri, Ms. Anna Olson, Ms. Diane Dupuy. More information will be available soon.
