Each Advent season, our Parish has a tradition of having families and individuals light the Advent Wreath at the beginning of all weekend Masses. This is a beautiful way to take a very special part in the Mass and invite everyone at Mass to prepare for the birth of our Savior. We invite our parishioners to join us in this lovely tradition again this year. If you or your family would be interested in lighting the Advent Wreath during the weekend Masses of Advent, we ask that you please reach out to Cheryl Kirkland at 412-351-6710 or ckirkland@sjwpitt,org to sign up for a week or two. If you are new to our Parish-- we hope you will make lighting the Advent Wreath a new tradition for your family and if you are a long standing parishioner, we are honored that you have chosen to continue this tradition with your parish family.
