Juniors attended their Class Retreat last Friday. The theme was Faith and Desire. Throughout the day students reflected on Psalm 37:4 - “Find your delight in the LORD who will give you your heart’s desire.” The students engaged in teambuilding games, reflection activities, a panel discussion held by USF student retreat team leaders (all Bishop Luers alumni), Mass and adoration. One activity involved creating a collage, challenging students to consider what they desire /wish for most in life. #LuersSpirit

Band and choir students from Bishop Luers, Bishop Dwenger, and their feeder schools are participating in the annual St. Cecilia Honor Program today, hosted by Bishop Dwenger High School this year. This event provides a great learning experience for students, who join together to form one middle school ensemble and one high school ensemble during the program. New this year is the addition of choir rehearsals and performances. Both the bands and choirs practice all day, both in large groups and in smaller breakout sessions. Band Directors Adam Hanke (Bishop Luers) and Don Cochran (Bishop Dwenger), as well as Choir Directors Kris Andorfer (Bishop Luers) and Theresa Stachofsky (Bishop Dwenger) are directing the sectional breakout sessions. Two guest clinicians are directing the combined bands and choirs. The students will perform in a free concert this evening at 6:30pm in the Bishop Dwenger gymnasium to showcase what they have learned!
