Prayer & Sacraments

As a Catholic, Jesuit school, prayer and the Sacraments are at the heart of everything we do.  Every morning, with the exception of Thursdays, Mass is offered in the Chapel of the Sacred Heart at 7:30, where all members of our community, including alumni and friends, are welcome.  Over the PA system, the voice of a member of our community begins and ends each day through prayer as we pause together. At Rockhurst, our students begin every class period with prayer led by our teachers.   

The celebration of the Eucharist is offered multiple times a year for the All School community, including Holy Days of Obligation.  Mass is also offered to individual classes throughout the year and Individual grade levels celebrate Mass once a semester in the Rose Theater.  The Sacrament of Reconciliation is offered every Friday during Activity Period on a “Regular Schedule.” Please see the school calendar for more information regarding our Sacramental schedule.
