On Wednesday, January 21st, Philadelphia's Archbishop Nelson Pérez celebrated a Mass and offered a blessing for Annie’s Home, located on the campus of our Padre Pio Prayer Center in the Frankford neighborhood of Northeast Philadelphia, recognizing the ministry’s expanding work with pregnant and parenting women.

With Archbishop Pérez in the photo are our Capuchin brothers Keon Tu, Edgar Pereira, Alex Hostoffer, Orlando Reyes, Joseph Morton, Michael Herlihey and Bill Talentino.

While on site, the archbishop also visited The Cenacle at the Padre Pio Prayer Center, a joint ministry of Catholic Charities of Philadelphia that supports and provides essential resources for pregnant women, new parents, and families. You can read the May article from Catholic Philly about the work of Annie's Home whose existence owes a debt of gratitude for the work of our Capuchin brothers Alex, Edgar and Kevin. Thank you, brothers!
