The closing of its physical building during the COVID-19 pandemic hasn’t prevented DePaul Catholic High School in Wayne from springing into action to help the local efforts of medical personnel and other first-responders fight the spread of COVID-19 and care for patients, who have been infected. DePaul has been putting into practice lessons of faith from school about lending a hand to people in need largely by leveraging the power of technology and the charity of their tight-knit community.

Bishop Serratelli celebrated Mass for Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion at St. Paul’s Inside the Walls: The Catholic Center for Evangelization at Bayley-Ellard in Madison April 5. The Mass was live-streamed for all in the Diocese to see via Facebook. During his homily, the Bishop said, “So today, separated physically but united by the love of Christ crucified, we join the crowds in Jerusalem and we cry out, ‘Hosanna to the son of David, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’ Blessed is he who comes to save us and he will.”
