Memorial gifts to individual parish endowments are a meaningful way to honor the life and faith of a loved one. These gifts allow their memory to continue blessing the parish by providing long-term support for worship, ministries and outreach. Through an endowment memorial, a loved one’s legacy becomes part of the ongoing life of the church, strengthening our parish community for generations to come. For information about making a memorial gift to a parish endowment, contact Vicki Meier at 724-552-2503.

Please continue your prayers for all three of our Seminarians!

Millions in Catholic school tuition assistance available SPREAD THE NEWS! The 12 Diocese of Greensburg Catholic schools now have millions of dollars in tuition assistance available! Become a TOP Student today. Visit www.CatholicSchoolsGuide.org or call 724-552-2565.

Top Student program extended to higher education at Franciscan University Because of the continued generosity of an anonymous donor, Catholic high school students in the Diocese of Greensburg, or those attending Catholic high schools in Western Pennsylvania, could receive priority for tuition assistance, regardless of income, if they choose to attend

Franciscan University of Steubenville. This new initiative is funded by the same anonymous donor who funded the TOP Student program in the Diocese of Greensburg. To date, the TOP Student program has provided tuition assistance to 800 families in Catholic schools across the four counties of the Diocese and has helped to increase enrollment in Diocesan Catholic schools by 20% in just two years; that is one of the largest Catholic school enrollment increases in North America.
