Usually, this feast day is a Holy Day of Obligation. But, because it falls on a Saturday this year, the obligation is removed. While that means you don’t have to go to church on Saturday morning for the feast day, it doesn’t take away from the significance of this day. There are many unique graces that we attribute to our Blessed Mother Mary. These graces are particular gifts God gave to her in order to prepare her to be the mother of His Son. For instance, in December we celebrate the Immaculate Conception of Mary, honoring her as being conceived without the stain of original sin and keeping her free from sin throughout her life. When the Gabriel comes with the message from God asking Mary to be the Mother of God, the angel greets her as “full of grace.” To be full of grace means that there is no room for anything evil, hence, she is free from sin. And while Mary could have said “no” to the request of God because of the gift of free will, her heart is so pure and loving that she says “yes” without hesitation and brings Christ into the world. The celebration of the Assumption is the culmination of our belief in the unstained goodness of the Blessed Mother. To be free from sin throughout her life, to carry the child Jesus in her womb, to witness the public ministry, passion, and death of Jesus, and to have all of the children of God entrusted to her care allows her a share in the fullness of God’s glory in heaven. While we will need to await the resurrection of the body on the last day before we can see God face to face, Mary shared in that privilege from the moment of her death so that she might love us and intercede for us as our heavenly Mother. Consider joining us for Holy Mass in celebration of the Solemnity of the Assumption at 8:30 a.m. this Saturday, August 15th at Saint Anthony Chapel so that we can give thanks to God for the wonderful gift of Mary our Mother. May she continue to intercede for us and may we continue to experience the love that pours forth from her Immaculate Heart. RCIA (RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS) The RCIA program is being planned to begin in the Fall and will culminate with the celebration of the Sacraments of Initiation at the Easter Vigil. The RCIA Program is meant for: Adults who have never been baptized and desire to become a member of the Church; Adults who were baptized in another Christian denomination and desire to become Catholic; Adults who were baptized Catholic but never completed their Sacraments of Initiation (i.e., Confirmation and Eucharist). The RCIA gatherings will be held weekly at a location to be determined and will consist of prayer, teaching, and conversation in a relaxed atmosphere. If you or someone you know is interested in the RCIA Program or in learning more about it, please email me at [email protected] or call one of the parish offices and leave your name and phone number. Don’t be afraid to reach out to someone who you believe is desiring to know and love God more. If you are interested in assisting with the RCIA Program as a catechist or sponsor, or if you would simply like to attend to see what it’s about and learn more about your faith, we’d love to have you join us. Reach out in the same way and let me know. God bless! Fr.

  • 2019 State of Downtown Pittsburgh
    20 STATE OF DOWNTOWN PITTSBURGH19 TABLE OF CONTENTS For the past eight years, the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership has been pleased to produce the State of Downtown Pittsburgh Report. This annual compilation and data analysis allows us to benchmark our progress, both year over year and in comparison to peer cities. In this year’s report, several significant trends came to light helping us identify unmet needs and better understand opportunities for developing programs and initiatives in direct response to those challenges. Although improvements to the built environment are evident in nearly every corridor of the Golden Triangle, significant resources are also being channeled into office property interiors to meet the demands of 21st century companies and attract a talented workforce to Pittsburgh’s urban core. More than $300M has been invested in Downtown’s commercial office stock over the 4 ACCOLADES AND BY THE NUMBERS last five years – a successful strategy drawing new tenants to Downtown and ensuring that our iconic buildings will continue to accommodate expanding businesses and emerging start-ups. OFFICE, EMPLOYMENT AND EDUCATION Downtown experienced a 31% growth in residential population over the last ten years, a trend that will continue with the opening 6 of hundreds of new units over the next couple of years. Businesses, from small boutiques to Fortune 500 companies, continued to invest in the Golden Triangle in 2018 while Downtown welcomed a record number of visitors and new residents. HOUSING AND POPULATION 12 Development in Downtown is evolving and all of these investments combine to drive the economic vitality of the city, making Downtown’s thriving renaissance even more robust.

Gathering and organizing all of the information contained here was an enormous undertaking for the team that created this book.

It is my hope that this wealth of information, and the collaborative effort it took to produce it, fosters new partnerships and relationships among those who work to create a better quality of life for so many on the North Side. My thanks to the North Side Service Providers Network, and especially Jane Miller of Mercy Behavioral Health, for having the vision, patience, and persistence to build this new resource for the community. Sincerely, Roy Lahet, Executive Director Mercy Behavioral Health August, 2002 ii USING THIS DIRECTORY The creators of the directory intended for this book to be easy and intuitive to use.
