Glory in Creation
After rising early on Saturday morning, over 100 Summer Program students joined the prefects on a hike through the Los Padres National Forest. The trail, which borders the campus, leads to the refreshing (but cold!) Punch Bowls — two naturally formed pools of spring water. Accompanying the summer crew was the College’s head chaplain, Rev. Paul Raftery, O.P., who offered Mass en route — a beautiful way to celebrate both Creation and Creation’s God. The students greatly enjoyed the three-mile canyon hike, climbing over boulders, crossing the creek beds, and finally lunch and a dip in the cool water at the top.
It was a quiet afternoon back on campus afterward, leading up to an amazing barbeque tri-tip barbeque dinner, prepared by master chef Patrick Nazeck (’19) and his fellow prefects!
