Dear Friends,
Dear Friends,
OUR WEBSITE: www.stpaulofthecrossmonastery.com is being taken care of by a new person. She is a young mother of three, a musician and teacher. I met her and her husband in North Carolina. The family visited me here in Pittsburgh a year ago. Her husband was raving about her work for his music and website. They are both faithful Catholics. I have hopes she will help us make our website more user friendly.

ENROLLMENTS & PURGATORIALS ARE NOW ON LINE: One of the first things the web master did was to put our Mass cards and Enrollments on line. You can now select, order and pay for them on line. That will help the financial viability of this house. It is a huge place with insurance bills and all sorts of things that need to be paid for promptly. We depend solely on free will offerings, bequests, the enrollments, offerings that come from the candles at the shrine etc.

Retreat Center
Paul of the Cross, founder of the Passionists, always wished his monasteries to be places of hospitality. The same applies for our retreat center. We have a variety of retreats for men, women, mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, and many day events as well.
