We are so proud of our nine students who joined the Catholic Church at this year's Easter Vigil. We walked with each student to connect them to the RCIA Program at their parishes, and met monthly so they could journey together as a Chapelle family!  They have grown so much in their faith and we are so proud of them! It is truly inspiring and exciting to watch Chapelle students build a relationship with our Lord. God is so good! ✨Zureidy Bolanos ✨Kolleen Dubroc ✨Kayla Giardina ✨Sameera Gulati ✨Dalila Gulati ✨Remy Marshall ✨Mia Sanchez ✨Allisson Suazo ✨McKenzie Verges

"Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Hasten to Help Us" 🙏 We celebrated our final school Mass by honoring Our Blessed Mother at our annual May Crowning Mass. Our newly elected Student Council President, Sophie Panzavecchia, crowned Mary with flowers. New E-Board Vice President, Avery Schexnaydre, presented her with a bouquet. We also honored those who attended District and State Literary Rally, as well as the softball team for their State Championship win! In our daily prayers we ask for the Blessed Mother's guidance, in hopes that she will give us the wisdom to accept God's graces and assist us in our trials. #DeusProvidebit , God Will Provide!

Two Archbishop Chapelle High School students were presented the St. Timothy Award in April for their leadership, service and good moral standards exhibited through their work with church parishes and the archdiocesan community. The two Chapelle students are Abigail Fortado and Morgan Gaudet! Abigail Fortado, St. Catherine of Siena, Metairie: Abigail served on the Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. She is also a member of Teen CROSS and attended the March for Life in Washington, D.C. Her campus minister shared this about Abigail, “She is passionate about the Gospel and is quick to work to evangelize those around her...I see her go after the lost sheep, the outsiders, the lonely. She befriends them, meets them where they are and loves them there.” Morgan Gaudet, St. Benilde, Metairie: Morgan is a member of Teen Cross and serves as a board member for St. Benilde's youth ministry. She also served on teh Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. Her campus minister shared these words about Morgan, “The depth of Morgan's relationship with Jesus sets her apart...She has gone to a level of prayer, trust and confidence in God that I do not see in most high school students.”
