Genesis 3:19 Unlike a normal Wednesday at Jesuit College Preparatory School, the students, faculty, and guests all solemnly filed into the Terry Center to celebrate the Mass of Ash Wednesday on the 10th of February. Father Leise SJ started the Mass by telling the audience how “It’s funny, you know....
