Mass of the Holy Spirit

The LMU community is invited to celebrate the Mass of Holy Spirit

Thursday, Sept. 18, 2025
Mass begins at 12:05 pm 
Sacred Heart Chapel

On September 18 at noon, our community will gather for one of LMU’s most cherished traditions, the Mass of the Holy Spirit, a liturgical celebration that marks the start of the academic year. Rooted in 16th century Jesuit origins and observed at Jesuit institutions worldwide, the Mass invites us to call upon the Spirit’s gifts of wisdom, understanding, right judgment, courage, knowledge, reverence, and awe as we begin this year’s journey together. At LMU, this tradition grounds us in faith, solidarity, and purpose. It reminds us that we are not only scholars and colleagues but companions working toward the common good, honoring the dignity and diversity of all whom we encounter.

 Lunch to follow in the Sculpture Garden. 

Please RSVP.
