NEWBURGH – A group of dedicated Mount Saint Mary College students recently strengthened their faith by receiving sacraments at the Chapel of the Most Holy Rosary on campus.

The sacraments included Baptism, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation.

The Most Rev. Dominick J. Lagonegro celebrated the Mass with Father Gregoire Fluet, vice president for mission and ministry at the college.

“It’s always a joy for me to offer the sacraments and witness wonderful students continuing their spiritual journey,” said Father Fluet.

The confirmed students stood before their family, friends, and the college community to affirm their faith and commitment to their Catholic beliefs. Receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation were: Melissa Diaz, Kaelyn Donoghue, Ayleen Morales, Leandro Ortiz, Brayden Rappa, and Lauren Tavarez.

Receiving the Sacraments of First Communion and Confirmation was Salvador Serrano.

Receiving the Sacraments of Baptism, First Holy Communion, and Confirmation were Raven Brake, Christopher Murolo, and Joseph Patierno.
