From September 1 (the World Day of Prayer for Creation) to October 4 (the Feast of St. Francis) each year, the Catholic Church joins with other faith traditions to celebrate the Season of Creation by praying and acting together to protect our common home. This year’s theme is Peace for Creation.

In observance, the School Sisters of St. Francis and our Franciscan Resource Center ministry welcome you to a special prayer service focused on finding peace with creation. Join us at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, September 17, in the chapel Mt. Assisi Place in Pittsburgh, Pa. Lite refreshments will follow.

Please RSVP to the Mt. Assisi Place Reception Desk at 412-761-1999 by Friday, September 12.

Mt. Assisi Place is located at 934 Forest Avenue, Pittsburgh PA 15202.
