A Message from the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference
We’ve come to you before asking for your support on this critical pro-life issue and we are doing it again as the process of lawmaking continues. The PA Senate is taking up the issue of Telemedicine today with the issue of its containing provisions for abortion likely to be discussed. This is an extremely vital pro-life issue–the most critical pro-life vote of the session. We must prohibit the the use of Telemedicine for abortions.
Please ask your senator to support the pro-life version of Telemedicine and to vote the bill on concurrence without an amendment. Thank you!!! Click the link below to log in and send your message: Pennsylvania Catholic Conference |
National Moment of Prayer on Good Friday
In response to the dynamic and ever-evolving health crisis caused by the Coronavirus (COVID-19), Most Reverend José H. Gomez, President of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and Archbishop of Los Angeles, has invited Catholics across the nation to participate in a moment of prayer on Good Friday that will be streamed live via facebook.com/usccb….
Locally, Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez is strongly encouraging the faithful throughout the five-county Archdiocese of Philadelphia to join Archbishop Gomez in this prayerful initiative for the intentions of the sick, suffering, and their caregivers as well as government and health officials who are working tirelessly to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. As a united human family, Catholics will pray the Litany of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and seek our Savior’s healing and protection. In his Message for Holy Week, Archbishop Gomez said, “The Holy Father has granted a special plenary indulgence to those who pray for an end to this pandemic. To receive this indulgence, you need to pray the Litany of the Sacred Heart on Good Friday, be truly sorry for your sins and desire to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation as soon as it is possible, and you need to pray for the intentions of the Pope.” For more information, please click here. Thank you. Sincerely in Christ, Rev. Msgr. Daniel J. Sullivan Vicar for Clergy |

Message of Gratitude
As we move forward into very uncertain times and recognizing that many people are worrying and struggling with regard to their finances, we offer a personal word of gratitude to our parishioners who continue to support the Parish financially during this difficult and unprecedented time. We are truly grateful for everyone’s sacrifices to maintain our Parish Community. We thank those who are contributing through EFT, as well as those who have mailed their envelopes or dropped them through the rectory mail slot.
