Introducing the Campus Ministry Theme for the 2025-2026 School Year:

Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. 



By Ms. Lannan 


This year’s campus ministry theme is inspired by Romans 8, where St. Paul describes the power of God’s love for each of us and that nothing can separate us from this love that you and I are made for. He says:


What will separate us from the love of Christ? Will anguish, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?...No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:35-39)


When the campus ministry leaders and I were talking about the potential theme at the end of last school year, the idea of trust continued to come up. As I prayed more about this theme, I was reminded of this passage from Romans, and I found myself wondering what it would look like to have a student body that trusted God not just when things were going well, but even when difficulties, sufferings, and trials came our way. What if we had the type of trust that kept us faithful to God even when things were hard, a trust that continued to pray and praise Him even when we felt abandoned, let down, or alone? After all, this
is the reality. God is intimately close to us even when things are difficult or when He feels far away. He is not defined by how we are feeling, but is an ever present and living reality, closer to you than the air you are breathing right now. Archbishop Hughes once told me that what first may seem like a stumbling block on our journey to God, can actually become a stepping stone that leads us closer to Him. Sufferings and difficulties will come - it is a part of life that cannot be escaped. The Enemy wants these sufferings to become stumbling blocks in your faith life, a hindrance that keeps you from Jesus. But if we turn to God even when things are hard, those same stumbling blocks that Satan tries to put in our way become stepping stones to walk closer with the Lord. 


In my own life, I have time and time again found that when I turn towards Jesus in my suffering, difficulties, loneliness, or trials (instead of away from Him), there is a deeper peace and intimacy there than even in times of consolation. I have turned away and run to other things to fill me or distract me more than I can count, but these never satisfy me in the end. When I turn to Jesus, I know that I am not alone and that He is in the suffering with me. It doesn’t mean things automatically become easier and the suffering disappears, but turning to Him does fill me with a peace that nothing else can offer. And at the end of the day, I realize that any suffering He allows is not because He doesn’t care about me - it is actually quite the opposite! Anything He allows can be an invitation to draw close to Him, a stepping stone that unites my heart more to His than it was before and joyfully fills me with the love I was created for.


Throughout this year, I pray that you will join campus ministry in this journey to grow in trust! Wherever you are in your faith journey, whether you have been walking with God for years or you're unsure of who God even is in your life, you are welcome and wanted at all campus ministry events and occasions. In addition, campus ministry leaders will be writing monthly reflections on trust throughout the year. I pray that these reflections move your heart and draw you closer to the God who is always waiting for you!

Walking with Faith: Honoring the Month of the Rosary 🙏 To close out the month of October — the Month of the Rosary — our entire Chapelle community came together in a beautiful display of faith and unity. All theology classes participated in a walking rosary around campus, with faculty and staff joining in prayer as well.  As students moved from one decade to the next, the campus filled with peaceful reflection and reverence. It was a powerful reminder of the importance of prayer and the special devotion to the Blessed Mother during this holy month. 💚 The walking rosary served not only as a spiritual reflection but also as a meaningful way to strengthen our shared faith community. Through prayer and reflection, we were reminded that, just as each bead of the rosary is connected, so too are we — as one Chapelle family rooted in faith. 🕊️

Respect Life Month: Sharing Hope Through Words 💌✨ October is Respect Life Month, a time to honor the dignity and value of every human life. To celebrate, the Chips for Life Club participated in an affirmation card–writing activity for the Women’s New Life Clinic. Our students wrote over 100 heartfelt cards — in both English and Spanish — offering words of encouragement, love, and hope to the women served by the clinic. Each message was a reminder that kindness and compassion can make a lasting impact. We’re so proud of our Chips for Life members for living out Chapelle’s mission through acts of faith and service!

Campus Ministry Celebrates All Saints Day in Style ✨😇🍕 On All Saints Day, our incredible Campus Ministry Team brought faith and fun together in true Chapelle fashion — by dressing up as their favorite Catholic saints! The halls were filled with joy, creativity, and a wonderful spirit of holiness as students proudly shared the stories of the saints who inspire them most. Faith, Fun, and Fellowship 💚 The celebration didn’t stop at costumes! Our Campus Ministry members gathered for a special pizza party and a round of Saints Trivia, testing their knowledge while learning even more about the holy men and women who serve as role models of faith. Each student brought her own personality to life through her saint — whether it was St. Therese the Little Flower, St. Joan of Arc, or St. Francis of Assisi — demonstrating the many beautiful paths to holiness. A Beautiful Witness of Faith 🙏 It was heartwarming to see the excitement in our students as they shared their saints’ stories and reflected on how they strive to live out those virtues in their own lives. This celebration reminded everyone on campus that sainthood isn’t out of reach — it’s something we’re all called to every day. Thank You, Campus Ministry! 💫 Thank you to our Campus Ministry Team for bringing faith to life in such creative and meaningful ways. Your joy and devotion continue to make Chapelle a place where faith flourishes!

🩷🕺 VOOBOO 2025: A Celebration of Spirit, Sisterhood, and Pure Joy! 🕺🩷 There’s no day quite like VOOBOO at Archbishop Chapelle High School! Every year, our entire school community comes together for this beloved Chapelle tradition — an outdoor “festival” packed with music, laughter, and unforgettable performances. This year’s celebration, VOOBOO 2025, was one for the books! From creative costumes to incredible choreography, every group brought their energy and enthusiasm to the stage, reminding us what makes Chapelle such a special place. Performances That Stole the Show 🎤💃 The day featured standout performances from across our campus community, including: - Sophomore Class Officers as Justin Timberlake 🎶 - Junior Class Officers as Bruno Mars ✨ - Senior Class Officers as Beyoncé 👑 - Chapelle & Rummel Executive Boards as Teen Beach Movie 🏖️ - Plus, some incredible surprise acts from our faculty and staff! From pop icons to beach vibes, the stage came alive with school spirit and talent, filling our courtyard with laughter and applause. A Day to Remember 💚 VOOBOO isn’t just about performances—it’s about community, sisterhood, and celebrating the joy of being a Chipmunk. With students and teachers side by side, the event captured everything we love about Chapelle: faith, friendship, and fun. As the music faded and the day came to a close, one thing was clear—there’s nothing quite like the spirit of Chapelle. Until Next Year, VOOBOO! 💃🌟 We’re so grateful for everyone who made VOOBOO 2025 such a success—from our performers and planners to our supportive faculty and cheering crowd. We pray that everyone gets to experience a sisterhood like Chapelle. 💚🐿️

Sudden Impact: A Powerful Lesson in Safe Driving 🚗💚 Today, Archbishop Chapelle High School hosted the Sudden Impact Mock Crash, an emotional and eye-opening demonstration that brought the harsh realities of impaired and distracted driving to life for our students. As sirens blared and first responders arrived on the scene, students witnessed the tragic aftermath of a fictional car crash — a scene that felt all too real. The wreckage, the silence that followed, and the emotion on the faces of those involved served as a powerful reminder: one decision can change everything. Student Participants - Sophie Fay ’27 – drunk driver - Kendall Decourt ’27 – injured passenger - Sierra Corales ’27 – sober driver - McKenzie Verges ’27 – narrator - Brianna Borne ’27 – letter read to deceased friend - Gabrielle Bush – deceased passenger Each student portrayed their role with authenticity and compassion, helping their peers truly understand the devastating ripple effects of one moment of distraction or impairment. A Lesson That Lasts This event wasn’t about fear — it was about awareness. It was a call to responsibility, emphasizing that every time you get behind the wheel, you hold lives in your hands. Thank You A heartfelt thank-you to our students, faculty, first responders, and community partners who helped make this impactful experience possible. Because of efforts like this, our students walk away not only more informed but also more committed to making safe, smart choices behind the wheel.  Together, we can help save lives. 💚🐿️

A Spook-tacular Day at Chapelle! 🍭🎃 Each year, we have some of our favorite guests on campus to trick or treat—St. Therese, of course!! The elementary school students hop on Chapelle buses and ride over to campus for an afternoon of costumes, candy, and laughter with our Chapelle faculty and students. We are so thankful for this partnership, and we feel blessed to host this event each Halloween season. This tradition is one of our favorites!
