Mass of the Holy Spirit

Celebrate Spirit!, the official welcome to the new school year for UB faculty, staff and students, is part of a long tradition dating from the founding of the great European universities in the Middle Ages. These institutions would celebrate the Mass of the Holy Spirit at the start of a new school year. Following this tradition we call on God's Spirit for inspiration as we begin a new academic year. This festive event gathers the entire University community together to rededicate ourselves to the University's mission, to renew friendships, and to welcome new members.

 

The annual Mass of the Holy Spirit and Convocation will be celebrated on Sunday, September 28 at 11:30 am. The liturgy will be held at St. Joseph University Church located at 3269 Main Street in Buffalo. The church is adjacent to the South Campus. Faculty, staff, administration and students are highly encouraged to join in the procession before Mass. The procession gathers at 11 am in the Community Room to robe and form the procession.

 

A reception, open to the entire community, will be held immediately after the service in St. Joseph University School cafeteria.
