Dear Brothers & Sisters,

COVID-19 Update
Effective Memorial Day, May 31, and until further notice, all churches in our diocese may be open at 100% seating capacity. Summer festivals and other non-liturgical events are permitted. [For the full text of Bishop Zubik's announcement, go to https://diopitt.org/news/diocese-of-pittsburgh-churches-open-to-full-seating-capacity-may-31-masks-still-required on the diocesan website.]  Many of our parishes are excited to be holding summer festivals this year. A diocesan parish festival guide will be posted on the Pittsburgh Catholic website, https://pittsburghcatholic.org/ .

Celebrating Pentecost
Next weekend, the Church celebrates Pentecost Sunday, which marks the birth of the Church and the descent of the Holy Spirit. In honor of this great feast, we invite everyone to wear RED to Mass on the weekend of May 22nd & 23rd.


In the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
Fr. Jean-Luc Zadroga, OSB
