Students at Bishop Luers High School have many retreat opportunities! All students will have a day retreat during the school year. Bishop Luers makes available all Diocesan High School retreat information and registration forms throughout the school year. Students are invited to attend various retreats with the Franciscan Sister in Mishawaka, Indiana and the ND Vision Retreats held at the University of Notre Dame.
Our students and staff are blessed to have area priests available to celebrate Mass and the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Fr. Paolo Degasperi and Fr. Patrick Hake serve as our school chaplains. In addition, our chaplains, pastoral minister, and principal are available to students, faculty, parents, and families for individual pastoral guidance, support, and referrals.
Students are welcome to volunteer to lector at Mass or serve at Mass here at BLHS. Email jserrani@bishopluers.org to learn more.
Bishop Luers students gather every Thursday morning at the Abortion Clinic to pray the Rosary for Life. Additionally, students gather in our school chapel every Thursday morning at 7:15 A.M. to pray the Rosary for Life. Mrs. Ann Isch is the moderator for Bishop Luers Knights for Life.
