Gardening help needed! Spring is here. The Laudato Si gardening group has lots of plans for beautifying the monastery gardens we tend to, and we can really use your help. No experience is necessary. We mostly need people to help us with maintenance and watering during the growing season and with clean-up of the gardens in the fall. Any help you can give us will be greatly appreciated. Please contact Rose Lord if interested at roseannlord7@gmail.com or call me at 412-951-7224 and leave a message. Many thanks in advance!!

Dear Friends,
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY: We have a special remembrance at Mass today for all our mothers living and deceased and begin today the Novena of Masses for all the mothers whose names are on the altar. Thank God for each of them living and deceased. They are God’s special gift and reflect his love for us. Years ago, I was asked to give a talk, “Saints for the New Millennium” and conclude with a few people I knew personally that I considered very holy. I picked three: Fr. Michael Anthony Campbell, Passionist priest and missionary to China, Cardinal Ignatius Kung, who spent 33 years in a Communist jail for the faith and also my mother, Mary Kerber. They were 3 of the holiest people I have ever known.

Paul of the Cross, founder of the Passionists, always wished his monasteries to be places of hospitality. The same applies for our retreat center. We have a variety of retreats for men, women, mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and many day events as well.
