First Friday Observation
Friday, August 6, 2021
When:
Friday, August 6, 2021
Time:
After the 8:00 a.m. Mass until Benediction at 4:00 p.m.
Where:
Our Lady of Guadalupe Church
First Friday is a special time of grace and blessing, as it enables us, through Eucharistic Adoration, to grow closer to Our Lord, Who is present Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity in the Most Blessed Sacrament. First Friday is a time to slow down a bit and receive God's love into our hearts, so we in turn can give that love to others. Eucharistic Adoration is a great way to
focus on Jesus and be refreshed in His service!
How can I get Involved in this Special Time?
Visit OLG Church and spend some quiet time in prayer with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. The church will be open after the 8 a.m. Mass until the Benediction at 4:00 p.m. Sign up for a half-hour of Eucharistic Adoration today. Or just show up! Call the parish office to sign up.

Dear Members of the Parish,
As your pastor, I highly encourage you to participate in this request from the Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation, regarding these important pieces of legislation, and contacting Senators Toomey and Casey.
The links will guide you through the process. If you are unable to do this, then I would encourage you to make a phone call. Thank you for your efforts at being involved and informed citizens and Catholics.
Sincerely Yours in Our Lord,
Monsignor Joseph P. Gentili
So-Called Equality Act
Please contact U.S. Senators Bob Casey and Pat Toomey and urge them to oppose the so-called Equality Act (H.R. 5). The bill would potentially expand abortion in general, and taxpayer funding of abortion in particular. Contact Senators Casey and Toomey here:
