Laissez les Bons Temps Rouler: Chapelle Alumnae Northshore Social 💜🎭 The Mardi Gras season rolled on with another joyful alumnae gathering as Chapelle Alumnae from the Northshore came together for a festive social on February 3 from 6–8 p.m. at Triple Nickel Grill in Madisonville. Set against the lively spirit of Carnival, alumnae enjoyed an evening filled with great conversation, laughter, and reconnecting with fellow Chipmunks. The turnout was fantastic, and it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces sharing stories, catching up, and celebrating the Chapelle bond off campus. Events like this remind us that once a Chipmunk, always a Chipmunk.

By Payton Morris “Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.” (adapted from Romans 8:38–39) Romans 8:38–39 means a lot to me because it reminds me that God’s love is something I can always rely on and that I can always lean on Him. In high school, it's easy to get lost in who you are and feel confused. There are moments when I worry about the future, feel overwhelmed, or even feel like I am not doing enough. This passage helps me remember that no matter what I am going through or what's happening in my life, nothing can separate me from God’s love. I am a very involved person, whether it’s at Chapelle, in my parish, or with my community. With that, I can sometimes feel pressure to always be strong or to have everything together, but this verse reminds me that God’s love is not something I have to earn by how much I do. It is already there through everything. In this passage, St. Paul lists so many things that people are afraid of, such as death, life, the future, or any kind of power, but then he says that none of it is strong enough to pull us away from God. To me, that shows how present and unshakable God’s love is. It is not based on my emotions, my successes, or if everything in my life is going perfectly. This verse gives me comfort because it reminds me that even when I feel alone or unsure, God is still with me. His love does not change when my life changes. Romans 8:38–39 encourages me to trust Him more and to have peace knowing that His love will always be with me no matter what.

Catholic Schools Week Celebrated Through Mass & Faith at Chapelle As part of Catholic Schools Week, Archbishop Chapelle High School came together as one faith‑filled community to celebrate Mass with our entire student body, reflecting on the many blessings of Catholic education and our shared Chapelle mission. Before Mass began, we proudly recognized two outstanding students as the Chapelle Students of the Year. Emily Ledet (12th grade) and Milan Vitrano (8th grade) were honored for their leadership, character, faith, and commitment to the values of Archbishop Chapelle High School. We are so proud of these students and the example they set for our community. Mass was celebrated by Father Austin Barr, who reminded us in his homily of the heart of our Catholic mission, sharing, “As Catholics, to know and love God is our mission. And our mission starts new every single day.” His words encouraged students and faculty alike to recommit daily to living out their faith through love, service, and purpose. Following Mass, the Chapelle community participated in a Eucharistic Procession to the Barn, where Adoration and Confession were offered to students, faculty, and staff who wished to spend time in prayer with the Lord. This sacred time allowed our community to pause, reflect, and grow spiritually together.  It was a truly beautiful day—one that highlighted the importance of faith, tradition, and unity within Catholic education. We are grateful to celebrate Catholic Schools Week surrounded by prayer, gratitude, and the Chapelle family.
