Welcome to Our Lady of Consolation Parish

Opened as an Italian personal parish, Our Lady of Consolation is proud to be serving the community of Tacony in Philadelphia for 100 years and counting. Our parish has a plethora of ministries that appeal to just about everyone. We are certain that one or more parish ministries will touch speak to your heart.

The entire Easter season lasts 50 days and includes the solemnity of the Ascension of Christ, which falls on the 40th day of Easter and ends with Pentecost, which is derived from the Greek word “pentecoste,” meaning “50th.”

The USCCB calls Easter “the most important of all liturgical times.”

“It celebrates Jesus’ victory of sin and death and salvation for mankind,” the U.S. bishops say. “It is God’s greatest act of love to redeem mankind.”

Weekly Devotion to the Holy Rosary

Please join us each Wednesday evening at 6:30pm in the church to pray the Holy Rosary and grow closer to our Lord. That is the single most important reason we should pray the Holy Rosary. Registration is not required. All are welcome!
