ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. The Sacrament of Marriage is offered by Father Bill Hausen. The
only necessary paper work is producing a civil license. R.Catholics who are divorced, and want remarriage, are especially
welcome. Blessing Services, for those who are unable to obtain a civil licence, are also available. Pre-cana seminars will
be offered, when requested. The Parish Council asks a stipend of $250 for use of the Church Building; special needs, however,
are always considered. Fr. Bill's cell...412-443-7898

convenient to all. No one is ever refused Baptism.

You might want to confer The Acts of the Apostles, Chapter I, vv.15-26. Matthias was chosen to be an Apostle, Bishop, and
Priest by the Will and Ordination of the Community. We welcome Men & Women who would like to be Ordained for Christ Hope
Church.

As taught in Catholic Theology, "Once a Priest, always a Priest."
