Fr. Boadt was Paulist priest and a great friend to the Hartford Catholic Biblical School. He worked closely with our students and graduates every year, even during his final illness in 2010. He had a gift for making the complexities of OT texts accessible to the minds and hearts of ordinary folks. The Archdiocese of Hartford’s undying respect for Fr. Boadt and his work is commemorated in the annual presentation of the Fr. Lawrence Boadt Memorial Medal, which is given to a graduate of the Catholic Biblical School who demonstrates excellence in the study of Scripture and a record of promoting devotion to God's Word in their way of living.
Sr. Doretta lives the gospel message every day through her religious vocation, in her work at Apostles Immigration Services in New Haven, and in providing adult education programs at the Caritas Christi Center in Hamden.
If you know a CBS graduate who has earned your respect as a student of Scripture and a leader in fostering devotion to God's Word (Jesus Christ) in Scripture, contact the Office of Religious Education and Evangelization. We will send you a nomination form for the 2016 Boadt medal, which is scheduled to be awarded at next year's Celebration of Sacred Scripture.
