Junior Ring Mass Tradition Continues for Class of 2028

After they received their class rings during the Mass, which was led by Monsignor William Benwell, the juniors performed their rendition of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell as their class song. Following the Mass, they attended a luncheon at Watchung Valley Golf Club after taking a keepsake photo with their banner on the Chapel steps. The juniors also received a special gift from the Alumnae Association, which was represented by Jessica Porchetta Bodajlo, Esq. '92 (Vice-President) and Susan Di Iorio, Associate Director of Alumnae Relations.

 

During her remarks, Sister Lisa Gambacorto, RSM, Ed.S., Directress, stated, "Your Mount ring represents the Core Values of our school and the circle of Mercy is timeless. It has no beginning and no end. You can't buy this ring on Amazon. You have to earn it. The ring will forever connect you to your classmates and the tradition of Mercy Education. Throughout the world, Mount graduates wear the ring you will wear, representing over 117 years of Mercy Education, here at the Mount. Wear the ring with pride and respect for the woman of Mercy you are becoming in both word and deed. Let it remind you of your strength, your growth, and the promise you have made to yourself and to your Mount sisters."
