Notre Dame High School blesses new Marian Grotto

On Oct. 1, Notre Dame High School, Riverside, held a special blessing for its new Marian Grotto, a sacred space dedicated to the Blessed Mother. The blessing was provided by the school’s chaplain, Father Paul Schmidt. This meaningful addition to the campus was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Arnaiz Law Firm, One Pro Construction, and the community’s generosity during its last Giving Tuesday fundraiser. The grotto has created a lasting space for prayer, reflection, and devotion for students, staff and the Titan community. As part of the celebration, flowers were placed around the statue of Mary and light refreshments were served following the ceremony.
