This process, the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is in place to assist those people who have not been baptized and who would like to become a Catholic Christian. We also invite adults who were baptized, perhaps in another Christian faith, who would like to become Catholic.
Full membership in the Roman Catholic Church is not complete unless a person has celebrated, Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist. Many times, for various reasons beyond the control of a child or young person, these sacraments are not celebrated. Anyone baptized Catholic who has not received all three of those Sacraments of Initiation is welcome to come forward at this time. If you would like to find out more about this process, please call Judy Bentz 412-921-1613.
St. Margaret Church has a Prayer Shawl Ministry. Parishioners knit or crochet shawls in the comfort of their homes. This activity can be an occasion and inspiration for daily prayer. Prayers are said for the recipients as the shawls are made. Father Bud blesses each shawl, then they are distributed to those in crisis or ill. These beautiful handmade shawls are a sign of God's Healing Presence, and a gesture of hope and peace from our parish.
If you would like to participate, please call Judy Bentz at 412-921-1613. We can provide patterns and yarn. Donations of yarn are gratefully accepted.
Vacation Bible School is for August 3 through 7, 2009. See the flyer for more information. Register Now.
