Oyster Bake on the campus of St. Mary’s this past weekend kicked off San Antonio’s city-wide 10-day celebration of Tex-Mex culture. And Casa Maria continued to celebrate Fiesta with prayers and postres (desserts). More than 40 students, staff, Marianists and guests were full of “fiesta fever” and enjoyed a backyard BBQ with sopaipilla cheesecake squares and margarita cupcakes. The colorful jello (provided by amigos Pat and Phyllis S.) matched the vibrant house decor (tissue paper pom poms crafted by Brother Brian). Viva Fiesta!

Casa María continued its celebration of the Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ by hosting its weekly prayer social with an Easter themed buffet (ham casserole and tossed salad with sliced boiled eggs) and colorful springtime desserts. Nearly 30 St. Mary’s students took a break from their books and came to enjoy spending time with the Marianists, staff, faculty and friends on Easter Tuesday.

“Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time.” — Martin Luther
