Each year, before our Mercy Day celebration, we take time to give thanks for our Mercy heritage with representatives of the College visiting Lilydale Cemetery to pay our respects at the graves of a number of Mercy Sisters. In glorious sunshine on Wednesday 11 September the College held a short Liturgy of thanksgiving for our foundress Catherine McAuley and the many Sisters of Mercy who have contributed so much to the College.
We also remembered the tragic events of 9/11 in the United States of America, which took place on this day in 2001.
The Liturgy was attended by a number of Mercy Sisters, past and present members of our College community, as well as representatives from the Old Collegians’ Association and Years 11 and 12 CSYMA students.
