Baptism: is celebrated by appointment at any weekend Mass and on the second Sunday of the month following the Noon Mass. Baptism is not administered during Lent. Sacramental preparation required. Call the office for information.

Reconciliation:is offered on Wednesday before the evening Mass (6:00-6:20 PM) and Saturday from Noon to 12:30 PM.

Marriage: The Sacrament of Marriage is more than a wedding day; it is a lifetime of committed love and so requires a period of spiritual preparation. Couples planning to be married must make an appointment to see a priest at least six months in advance of the anticipated wedding date. Marriage preparation classes, as well as scheduled meetings with a priest are required.

Christian Initation: RCIA and CIC are processes by which unbaptized persons and baptized persons of other faiths, or with no formal religious education, are brought into the Catholc church. Please contact Susan DiPietro, Coordinator of Evangelization at (724) 266-3921 for information.

Ministry to the Sick and Elderly: Our Pastoral Associate as well as our priests visit the local hospitals. Please call the office if a relative has been admitted. The priests, Pastoral Associate and parish Eucharistic ministers take Holy Communion to those unable to attend Mass because of age, sickness or disability. If you know someone who would benefit from a visit, please call the office.

The Sacrament of the Sick and Reconciliation can be celebrated for the homebound. Please call the office and speak to one of the priests to make arrangements.
