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 service at 1 p.m. on Sunday, October 11.

We welcome family, 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. Outdoor seating will be provided. Afterwards, all are welcome to join our Sisters for lite refreshments at San Damiano Convent (the house at the bottom of the Mt. Assisi Place driveway).

Please RSVP by October 1 via email to administration@schoolsistersosf.org or by clicking here.

Please note that this is an outdoor event. In the event of significant rain, the blessing will be postponed to Sunday, October 18.
