WATCH: Prayers going up! Pittsburgh’s bishop blesses a broken elevator

What does a bishop do with an elevator that won’t work? Bless it, of course. Pittsburgh’s Bishop David Zubik did just that today, and it was posted on Twitter. Ann Rodgers writes: “He got stuck in it about a year ago. He normally blesses the doors of the Pastoral Center during our Epiphany prayer service for the staff. But this one had extra meaning…”

Our elevator needs some work. Hopefully this blessing will help! #Pittsburgh #Catholic pic.twitter.com/zAomGbrrTi
