Iona was pleased to welcome nearly 3,000 Catholic school educators and staff to campus for the Archdiocese of New York’s “Spirituality Day,” an annual celebration including principals, teachers, counselors and leaders from over 150 Catholic schools serving nearly 50,000 students.
His Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, began the day with a special Mass in the Hynes Arena, followed by a keynote address by Monsignor James Vlaun, president and CEO of the national television and media network, Catholic Faith Network.
Superintendent of Schools Sister Mary Grace Walsh, ASCJ, Ph.D., was also in attendance, and the Iona pipe band performed.
“It is an honor to welcome His Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan and host Spirituality Day at Iona, where we share in the mission of Catholic education,” said Iona President Seamus Carey, Ph.D., noting many in attendance were Iona alumni. “My gratitude to the Archdiocese for the important work you all do to educate the next generation.”
