Washington D.C. March for Life
On Friday, Jan. 21, St. Oscar Romero Parish will send a bus to the National March for Life in Washington, D.C.
There will be a Mass at 5:30 a.m. at St. Patrick Church. We will depart from St. Patrick at 6:30 a.m., march from 1 to 4 p.m. and stop for dinner on our return home.
Join our pro-life witness in our nation’s capital! High school students are especially welcomed. The March for Life is a peaceful, prayerful rally to celebrate life from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death. It is held each year on the anniversary of the Roe V. Wade Supreme Court decision which legalized abortion in all fifty states.
The cost is $30 for adults/$15 for students (financial aid available). Donations to help defray the cost of the bus are gladly accepted! To reserve seats on the bus, contact Lisa Thompson Gehrlein at 412-491-9902 or email lthompson@romeroparish.org

ICON OF ST. JOSEPH AND CHRIST CHILD COMING TO OUR PARISH
In observance of the year of St. Joseph, the Knights of Columbus are bringing an icon of St. Joseph and the Christ Child to our parish. They will be displayed at the St. Patrick’s worship site on Saturday, Jan.15 for the 5 PM Mass and then transferred to the Holy Rosary worship site for the 9 AM and Noon Masses on Jan. 16. At 1:15 PM Jan. 16, our Brother Knights will conduct a prayer service in conjunction with the display that will last about 45 minutes. The intention is to spread devotion to St. Joseph and to inspire all to put their faith into action. The prayer service is open to all parishioners.
