Since 1974, the building at 55 East 3rd Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan has served as Maryhouse, a place that offers hospitality to “the homeless, the hungry, and the forsaken.” Run by volunteers of the Catholic Worker, Maryhouse shelters women and children, runs a soup kitchen, distributes clothing, and provides shower facilities, among other services. The organization was co-founded in 1933 by American journalist and social activist Dorothy Day, who is currently under consideration for canonization (or sainthood) by the Catholic Church.
It was a truly wonderful weekend to be a Moravian Academy lion! Hundreds of current families and alumni gathered at reunion events, the 5K Fun Run, and the Country Fair. Beautiful weather energized community leaders in every facet of the school, making every event special for the participants.
The seventh grade traveled to Boston, Massachusetts in late September to experience the history and culture of the vibrant city. This was the inaugural trip to Boston for Moravian Academy, as well as the first trip where the Middle School expanded a grade level trip to three days and two nights.
