Mass at Regis Jesuit

Mass at Regis Jesuit

As a Catholic school, the celebration of our core Sacrament—the Eucharist—is a critical component in the faith formation of all members of our school community. Therefore, we offer Masses regularly at the school throughout the school year. 

We remain steadfast in our commitment to offering this pinnacle of our faith as frequently as we can.

  • All-School Masses

    The school community comes together six times a year for all-school Masses, including the Mass of the Holy Spirit—an annual tradition at Jesuit institutions around the world—as well as for a prayer service during Holy Week.

  • Class Masses

    Students also attend divisional and class Masses several times each semester.

  • Mass on Retreat

    The Eucharist is also celebrated in the context of each of the class-level retreats.

  • Daily Mass

    All members of the community are welcome to attend a lunchtime Mass offered on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays (with the exception of First Fridays - see below) in the St. John Francis Regis Chapel in the boys building and on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Blessed Rupert Mayer Chapel in the girls building.

  • First Friday Mass

    A dedication to the Sacred Heart, students, parents, guardians, employees, alumni and friends of Regis Jesuit are invited to join us for a monthly Mass at 7:30 am on the first Friday of the month during the school year in the Blessed Rupert Mayer Chapel. First Friday in November is offered as a special Remembrance Mass for those who have gone before us in faith. More information on the First Friday liturgies and Remembrance Mass is below.

Mass of the Holy Spirit

At the beginning of each school year, our entire community—students, parents, faculty, staff, alumni, friends—comes together for our first all-school Mass, held in the heart of campus.

This time-honored tradition dates back to the mid-1500s when Fr.  Jerome Nadal, SJ, celebrated a Mass of the Holy Spirit at the first Jesuit school in Mesina in Sicily. This act began one of the long-held traditions of beginning every academic year at every Jesuit school around the world, invoking the Holy Spirit upon the community and all our efforts.

Mass of the Holy Spirit is a Jesuit tradition celebrated around the world.
Our school community is bound more tightly to our global Jesuit family through this liturgy.
Entering its 26th year, the tradition of First Friday Mass as a dedication to the Sacred Heart of Jesus continues at Regis Jesuit.

First Friday Mass

All parents, guardians, students, alums, faculty, staff and friends of Regis Jesuit are invited to join us at 7:30 am in the Blessed Rupert Mayer Chapel in the Girls Division on the first Friday of most months during the school year. We offer you a joyous celebration of the Eucharist, with inspirational music provided by the wonderful First Friday Choir.

We marked the 25th anniversary of the tradition of First Friday Masses at Regis Jesuit in October 2024 and invite all to join us in continuing this Jesuit devotion to the Sacred Heart.

  • Parking Information

    Attendees at First Friday Mass should plan to park in any NON-STAFF spot in one of the following areas:
    • Along the Kellogg Stadium fence on the south side of the Girls Division lot east of the dropoff zone 
    • In the visitor parking in front of the Science & Innovation Center
    Access the chapel by entering the east doors of the Girls Division building nearest to the primary parking lot. This is the only open door to allow access to the building. The other doors are locked and not staffed at this time of day.

    Please note that there is NO parking along the fire road as that is the dropoff area for our buses. This plan applies to FFM parking only. Vehicles parked in the dropoff zone outside of these times will be towed.
    See the parking map for complete details

  • Bad Weather Contingency Plan

    • If the school is closed due to weather conditions on a First Friday morning, then MASS IS ALSO CANCELLED.
    • If school is on a one-hour late start on a First Friday morning, MASS STILL WILL BE CELEBRATED AT 7:30 AM.
Afterward, fellowship with light refreshments takes place in the cafeteria extension near the chapel. It’s a wonderful way to start your month and end your week.
