Blessing & Rededication of St. Francis Cemetery

  • St. Francis Cemetery at Mt. Assisi Place 934 Forest Avenue Pittsburgh PA 15202 (map)

Our two-year effort to renovate and rejuvenate St. Francis Cemetery in Pittsburgh, Pa. — the final resting place of more than 140 of our Sisters — is finally complete. In gratitude for the generosity of our benefactors and in memory of our deceased Sisters, we will host a special Blessing and Rededication prayer service at 1 p.m. on Sunday, October 18.

We welcome our families, friends, alums and benefactors to join us for this special event at the cemetery, which sits behind Mt. Assisi Place (our former motherhouse) in Ross Township. Afterwards, all are welcome to join our Sisters for lite refreshments at San Damiano Convent.

Please RSVP by October 10 via email to administration@schoolsistersosf.org or by clicking here. Questions also may be directed to our Provincial Office at 412-761-2855.

Please note that this is an outdoor event. Seating will be provided. In the event of significant rain, the blessing will be moved indoors to Our Lady of the Angels Chapel at Mt. Assisi Place.
