Annual Novena in Preparation for the Feast of Saint Philomena

Dear Friends of St. Philomena,

We are in the midst of the Annual Novena in preparation for the Feast of our beloved Saint Philomena at the home of the National Center of the Universal Archconfraternity located at Holy Martyrs Roman Catholic Church, 120 Allison Road, Oreland, Pennsylvania. All of her friends are invited to join us on these days for Mass at 8:30 am. St. Philomena sacramentals are available at her shrine in the Church and additional items are available at the Rectory Office.

We are very grateful for the generosity of so many of the long time devotees of Saint Philomena and are encouraged by the many people who have discovered and rediscovered Saint Philomena since she has moved to Oreland, Pennsylvania.

We especially invite you to join us for her Feast Day on August 11^th. Mass is offered at 8:30 am and will be followed by the Novena Devotions and veneration of her relic. There will be a reception in the Father Szal Conference Room in the lower level of the Church where sacramentals will be available following Mass and Devotions.

St. Philomena, Powerful with God, New Light of the Church Militant, Invincible Champion of Chastity, pray for us!

God bless you,
