The Blessed Sacrament Chapel, our campus chapel, is open to students. Whether they are participating in group prayer with peers, or spending quiet time for reflection, our students are encouraged to take advantage of the chapel. 

Every week, our community comes together to celebrate Mass, typically at 9:15 am in our Assembly Hall on Thursdays unless there is a special Solemnity or Holy Day of Obligation that week. You can see the definitive schedule for Mass times on our school calendar. 

In addition to our chaplain, Fr. David Ramirez, we are blessed to welcome celebrants from many of the parishes in the North Houston area. We welcome all guests, including parents, extended family, or community members to our weekly all-school mass. If you would like to attend Mass on Thursday with us, please check in at the front office in the main Academic Building when you arrive. We do ask that all guests arrive around 9 am so there is plenty of time to check in and make your way to the Assembly Hall.

Students who have been trained to serve in a particular liturgical role at their home parish and would like to serve in the liturgies at Frassati Catholic as well should reach out to Mr. Valka at [email protected]. 

One way that Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati loved to cultivate his relationship with the Lord was through frequently attending Eucharistic Adoration- sometimes all the way through the night! Students and faculty alike are encouraged to frequently spend time with our Lord, who is always present in the tabernacle of our Blessed Sacrament Chapel.

Additionally, students are given dedicated time each month in their religion classes to spend time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. They start with a shorter time of prayer in their freshman year and incrementally work their way up to a whole Holy Hour by their senior year. By imitating our patron and his love for our Eucharistic Lord, Frassati Catholic students have the opportunity to deepen their personal relationship with Jesus and devotion to the Blessed Sacrament. 

Adoration happens in the days leading up to the First Friday of each month. When the Blessed Sacrament is not being adored by our students in their religion class, these spots are filled by faculty, staff, and parents. If you would like to sign up for Adoration, please visit the Sign Up Genius below. Parents will need to sign in and out with the Front Desk.

Please note as the spots start to fill that we can certainly have more than one person or class adoring our Lord at a time (Our new and improved chapel can seat 80!). However, if the time you would like is not listed on the sign-up genius, it means that classes will be in adoration at that time and we ask that you please find another time to adore the Lord. Thank you!

Contact Mr. Valka at [email protected] if you have any difficulty signing up.

Matthew 9:9-13 

For the Sophomore retreat this year, the Class of 2028 retreated to Saints Simon and Jude Catholic Church for the day and reflected on the call of St. Matthew and their own individual summons from the Lord. We examined what it means to be “called and sent” by God and spent time in prayer together, while also making time to play together and strengthen our bonds as a community.

This spring, Juniors will journey to Forest Glen Camps & Retreat center after school on Thursday, March 26th for their first overnight class retreat with FCHS. With Fr. Jacob Ramirez, we will spend time in prayer and reflection together. There will be time for fun with friends as well as silence with the Lord. This is an exciting retreat! Mark your calendars and keep an eye out for more details to come.

We will be joined by Fr. Joseph Paul, O.P. and our very own Fr. David Ramirez as well! Amid the fun of high ropes and fun with friends, we will also get to pull away and spend time growing in intimacy with the Lord as we prepare to send our seniors out to "go forth bravely!"

Pilgrimages hold a central role in the faith life of all Catholics, serving as a journey with a purpose; a journey to honor God. At Frassati Catholic, we engage in pilgrimages so that our students will become becoming witnesses for Christ and understand the importance of the Church in today’s society. We have participated in the last three World Youth Days (Krakow 2016, Panama 2019, Lisbon 2023), yearly pilgrimages to Austin for the Texas Rally for Life, and locally at the March of the Surviving Youth (MOTSY). Students return energized about their faith, and resolute in their call to become agents of change in modern culture.
