Prayer Requests

Grotto Candles
In 2021, candle holders were added to the Lourdes Grotto through the generous donation of Dennis Brenckle, B’67. Members of the Duquesne community are invited to submit a prayer for themselves or others to be offered at the Grotto weekly. Prayers will be offered by a member of the Campus Ministry staff and a candle representing the prayer request will be lit.

Book of Life
Each year, the Church dedicates the month of November to the remembrance of our beloved who have passed on. Deceased members of the Duquesne University community including alumni, students, faculty, staff, and their family and friends, will be remembered during the Noon Mass held on Friday, November 22, in the University Chapel. Prayers will be offered as a whole during the Mass for all of those submitted for the Book of Life.
