A group of young adults from across the South Hills area had an important job this summer. This group of men helped the maintenance crew of Blessed Trinity Catholic Parish with manual labor, various construction projects and general upkeep of the parish grounds – which includes St. Albert the Great Church in Baldwin and St. Sylvester Church in Brentwood. St. Wendelin and St. Basil in Pittsburgh’s Carrick neighborhood are also part of Blessed Trinity Parish. The maintenance crew of the parish includes Jeff Jenney, Len Lis, Gene Werner and Phil Siar.

During a time when families are struggling, volunteers from Calvary Chapel South Pittsburgh (CCSP) Church in West Elizabeth has stepped up to help them with the ‘Blessing Warehouse’. They have collected basic care items including clothes, shoes, coats/jackets, and blankets, along with select furniture and much-needed houseware items. They are then given to families who are in search of necessities. Whether they are seeking clothes, a dresser, a few kitchen items, or if they are victims of flooding or a housefire and have lost everything, no family is turned away. There is no application process or income requirement to be eligible for assistance.

Last month, Bonnar celebrated a homecoming Mass at his former parish -- a place that truly formed his life's mission.
