Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Come to the Sunday 10 am Mass at the church at 43rd and Wallace Streets. To ask about religious education or the food pantry, call the parish at 215-386-5065..

You can just show up.

What to expect

Mass is free and open to anyone, so you can come and sit. For food help, the pantry asks you to show identification and apply before you get a bag of groceries, and pickups happen once a month. Children's religious education meets on Sundays after Mass for PREP, with Saturday morning classes for sacramental preparation.

Tips for your first visit

  • Bring identification if you are applying for food help.
  • The parish office is open 9 am to 4 pm, Monday to Thursday, and closed on Fridays.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Sunday Mass is open to anyone. The site has a register option and a phone line, and the food pantry page explains how to apply. No newcomer program is described..
