Please join the Notre Dame community as we come together Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 8:00 p.m. in Notre Dame Stadium to celebrate Mass in memory of first-year students Valeria Espinel and Olivia Laura Rojas.
As we gather in prayer to honor Valeria, Olivia, and their families, University President Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., will preside, and Director of Campus Ministry, Rev. Pete McCormick, C.S.C., will preach.
For those who wish to attend in-person, the stadium will open at 7:30 p.m. with prelude music beginning at 7:45 p.m. Students should enter through Gate A and follow the direction of the ushers. Faculty and Staff should enter through Gate B and follow the direction of the ushers.
Masks and physical distancing are required at all times.
Temperatures are expected to be in the low 40’s, so please dress accordingly.
For those who wish to attend virtually, the Mass will be livestreamed and can be viewed here.
The University's chaplains, our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and the Notre Dame Wellness Center Emotional Well-Being team are available to offer support to faculty and staff who are grieving.
