Celebrating 20 Years!

On Friday, May 1st the Catholic Biblical School (CBS) of the Archdiocese of Hartford celebrated its 20th anniversary at a joyous reception with more than 150 people attending.

The celebration began with a prayer service designed and led by Angela Pietrowski Arpino, Class of 2008 and the 2010 Boadt Memorial Medal Recipient.  All 495 graduates of the Catholic Biblical School were remembered in prayer by name, and Biblical School students and alums proclaimed Scripture in word and song.

Hosted by Archbishop Leonard P. Blair, the reception and dinner provided an opportunity for students and alums to reminisce and share the renewed faith that the Catholic Biblical School has continued to provide them, through the years. Fr. Christopher M. Tiano and Ms. BJ Daly Horell paid tribute to Biblical School founders, Msgr. Michael Motta and Sr. Jewel Renna, who were present for the occasion.
