Welcome
Welcome to one of the newest and fastest growing Catholic Parishes in the North Hills of the Diocese of Pittsburgh! Our desire as a faith community is to be loyal to the authentic teaching of the Roman Catholic faith and practice. We pledge to celebrate the sacraments with faith, reverence and devotion. Service to the poor and needy is paramount to putting our faith into action. Sharing our faith and teaching the truth of Christ is done through good example and many creative and innovated Faith Formation programs and projects.
We are a young and enthusiastic faith-filled community which desires to welcome all with Christ-like love. There is something here for everyone! Our hope is that this web page will become your homepage. All of the exciting information regarding every aspect of parish life will be presented here and regularly updated. The very latest information regarding our Building Campaign with up-to-date photographs and Master Plan illustrations will also be available.
These are exciting times! The Parish of Saints John and Paul is embarking upon a new chapter in our short but riveting history. By the grace of God and through an enormous amount of hard work, we were able to secure twelve new acres of adjacent property in June of 2005. Now we have embarked upon the quest of building our permanent Parish Church. This new structure will be our spiritual home which will enable us to embrace our growing population. Our hope is to begin construction as soon as possible pending the generosity and support of all of you.

Our Campaign Prayer
Lord Jesus, You told us “where your treasure is, there your heart is also.” The parish of Saints John & Paul treasures our faith in You, our children, and every person who gathers here. Help us to have the courage to sacrifice, to love, and to build in Your name. Guide us by Your Spirit of Wisdom, give success to the work of our hands, and keep us in Your peace.
Saints John & Paul and Mary, our Mother, pray for us. Amen

Congratulations to all of the 212 Middle School students and volunteers who participated in these past two weeks of Summer Faith Formation. We are also very grateful to all of the Catechists and teen volunteers who made this exciting, educational opportunity possible! The students who participated in this program will return during the school year for "Faith Builders." "Faith Builders" are special events that are designed to build community spirit, renew enthusiasm, delight the senses and help everyone feel closer to God through education. Students receive "credits" for their faith-builder activities and can choose which dates and in which activities they want to participate. A complete list of "Faith Builder" activities for 2008-2009 is now available on the parish website. Contact Kathy Masters at: kmasters@stsjohnandpaul.org or call her at 724-935-2104, Extension 36, for information regarding these programs.

"Thank you" to all of you for your outpouring of love and support on the death of my newborn nephew Jonathan Ryan McCaffrey.
