Join us for an Advent tradition! On Thursday, December 14th, there will be a Rorate Mass at 6 a.m. It is called “Rorate” from the opening words of the Introit from the Mass of Our Lady in Advent, and is celebrated before day-break with the church illuminated only by candlelight. For those wishing additional light in order to follow with a missal, please bring your own candle.
To see more picture's from last year's Rorate Mass, go here.
The theme of this year's novena leading up to the Feast of the Immaculate Conception on December 8 is "The Biblical Prefiguration of Our Lady." The novena begins on Wednesday, November 29.
Maria Rikk died on Monday, October 9, 2023, at age 84.
Visitation is on Thursday, October 12 from 3-7 PM at Perman Funeral Home, 923 Saxonburg Boulevard, Shaler Twp., 15223.
A Requiem Mass will be offered for Mrs. Rikk at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, October 13 at Most Precious Blood of Jesus Parish.
Requiem aeternam dona ei Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei.
Requiescat in pace. Amen.
