SUMMARY:Prayer Vigil
DESCRIPTION:Prayer Vigil\nJoin members of PHLC as we stand with our wider community at a weekly prayer vigil in support of immigrants who have been seized and are being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. This vigil takes place every Friday\, beginning at 8:30 AM\, at the ICE Field Office\, 3000 Sydney Street\, Pittsburgh. It is grounded in faith\, compassion\, and a shared commitment to justice. \nEach gathering includes hymns\, spoken prayers\, and intentional moments of silence. Together\, we create sacred space in the midst of public life—bearing witness to the dignity of our immigrant neighbors and naming the harm caused by unjust systems. This is a peaceful\, quiet protest\, meant to remind the public that the suffering of our neighbors is not abstract or distant\, but real and happening in our community. \nParticipants are welcome to carry signs that reflect messages of hope\, solidarity\, and justice. In keeping with the spirit of the vigil\, there will be no shouting\, chanting\, or bullhorns. Those attending will stand on the public sidewalk only and may not enter the roadway or the property of the ICE facility. These guidelines help ensure the safety of all involved and preserve the prayerful nature of the gathering. \nThis vigil is an act of faithful presence—showing up\, week after week\, to say that immigrants are beloved\, that families matter\, and that silence in the face of injustice is not an option. Whether you come every Friday or are able to join us once\, your presence matters. \nThe vigil is hosted by Sisters of St. Joseph\, Pax Christi\, and Casa San José. All are welcome to come\, pray\, and stand in solidarity with our immigrant neighbors. \nPlease note: if the Pittsburgh Public schools cancels or has a 2-hour delay\, the Vigil for that day will be cancelled.

SUMMARY:Good Friday
DESCRIPTION:Join us at 6 pm — We Make a Place for Everyone!\nGood Friday\nIt is Finished\nThroughout his ministry Jesus turned things on their heads: the last became first\, the poor were blessed\, the blind could see. In parable and miracle Jesus brought a dominion that was set against the kingdoms of this world. In the circumstances of his death\, he did away with the accepted structures of power and weakness\, justice and retribution. Jesus’ crucifixion was the ultimate manifestation of the paradox of the dominion of God: the king who only days before rode triumphantly into the royal city is crucified as a criminal. The Messiah is a suffering servant. The Son of God is willing to die so that we can live. \nJohn’s gospel tells the story of how God accomplished\, in Jesus\, the fulfillment of scriptural prophecy about the one who would bring God’s people into reconciliation with God’s own self. In the story of the passion\, Jesus’ inexorable journey toward the cross\, which is the culmination of this prophecy\, picks up speed. Then\, with Jesus’ dying breath\, the journey is over. With the words “It is finished\,” Jesus’ mission is complete. His passion and his suffering are finished; the centuries-long wait for the Messiah is finished. God’s ultimate disruption of our efforts to save ourselves\, and the astounding reversal of human expectations\, is accomplished. \nOn this day\, as we meditate on the consequences of God’s sacrifice\, the church proclaims the good news that the cross of Christ is not only necessary\, but also sufficient for our salvation. With the command of Maundy Thursday lingering in our ears and hearts\, Good Friday reminds us that the freedom to obey Jesus comes as a gift from God through the cross of Christ. At the cross\, our old life of captivity to sin is finished\, and our new life of discipleship begins \n~From Sundays & Seasons
