Harvard Alum Jack Krouse, AB'04, was ordained into the transitional diaconate on June 20, 2020, in the church of Saint-Ignace in Paris, along with 10 other Jesuits from around the world. Please pray for him and all of our Harvard alumni who are considering vocations to the priesthood and religious life.

Inspired Ornamental completed the repair work on the Ascension this week. It was impressive and oppressive work with temperatures near 110 degrees at the top of the scaffolding some days. The plaster repair will take a week to dry, because of the humid conditions. Included in the plaster work was replacing the two stained glass windows which were shown to be leaking rain water. JW Graham, the same painters who painted the sanctuary, will begin their work the week of August 10.

Congratulations to newly ordained Fr. James Ferus, SJ, AB '07 (ordained Saturday, Aug 1st in Boston) and Fr. Doug Ray, SJ, JD '98 (ordained Saturday, August 8 in Philadelphia)! Click the photo for details and photos of the ordinations. Please continue to pray for our Harvard Alumni Jesuits!
