Resurrection Parish

Please join us on the First Friday of every month immediately after the 11:30 am Mass in the Lamb of God Chapel to pray the rosary and to pray a prayer of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The First Friday Devotions are a set of Catholic devotions to especially recognize the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and through it offer reparations for sins.

There will be a gathering after the 11:30am Mass at St. Thomas More Church on the first Friday of each month in the Breezeway between the church and the Family Life Center. Light refreshments will be served. Please stop by and take this opportunity to get to know one another. All are welcome.

Priests are available for Reconciliation (Confession)

Every Saturday in Lamb of God Chapel, a Holy Hour for Priests is prayed during the noon hour. This includes a Rosary for Priests - which could become a part of your First Saturday devotions. Then, you are welcome to stay for an extra 15 minutes in silent meditation on the mysteries of the Rosary in order to keep Our Lady company and complete the First Saturday Devotion sacrifice.

Priests available for Reconciliation (Confession) until 4:45PM

Our group began in April 1999 and has met monthly since that date. We read a variety of books chosen from the suggestions members offer for consideration. One reward is that we find enjoyment in a book or author we had not previously thought of reading. We also discover that our impressions of a book or character can give insight to a view other than our own. Our purpose in meeting is to share a love of reading and to enjoy the fellowship of making new friends. It is not necessary to purchase books as we mostly borrow from the public libraries. Meetings are in the Family Life Center from 10am until noon on the second Monday of the month except for January. Members choose a month in which they provide light refreshments. Each month’s book selection is published in the bulletin and our website. Anyone can join us—just come and give us a try!

Volunteers meet the 2nd Monday of the month at 6:30PM in the Rooney Room to discuss upcoming projects.  If you or someone you know needs home repair assistance, contact us: Phone: (412) 833-0031 ext. 246 Email: HeartsWithHammers@resurrectionpgh.org
