Lighting luminarias has been one of Loretto Academy’s traditions for many years.

Senior Juliana Liano said, “It was fun doing something for the school.

“It’s nice to give back to the school by decorating for the holidays.”

Every Christmas season, Loretto Academy students light luminarias around the chapel.

Senior Melissa Hidalgo said, “I think it’s really important that we do this because we’re putting our faith in practice and working together as a community.”

Mass will be held at Loretto’s chapel on Christmas Eve for all those who would like to attend and see the luminarias.

This tradition brightens the community every year.
