Diocesan Bulletin Announcements

CATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES – In the mountains of Minas Arriba, Guatemala, community leader Belisario García Ramírez learned from a young age that living in these mountains meant walking long distances to survive. He grew up listening to stories from his grandparents, who had to travel long distances to get medicine or medical care. Years later, as a father of six, he experienced that reality firsthand with deep anguish: not knowing if he would arrive in time when one of his children fell ill. 

For a long time, when a child woke up with a fever or trouble breathing, families from Minas Arriba had to walk all the way to the neighboring town of Minas Abajo. There, the health center was open only Monday through Friday. Weekends were synonymous with uncertainty. As Belisario says, “Illness doesn’t give warning, and it doesn’t wait until Monday.” In 2021, Catholic Relief Services, through its Raíces II project and in partnership with Caritas, helped train and organize community leaders in Minas Arriba to address local needs and strengthen disaster preparedness. Through this community-led effort, residents secured support, contributed volunteer labor, and successfully built a new health center that now provides vital medical care to 440 families. Visit www.crs.org for more information and to see how you can help!

CATHOLIC CHARITIES – Did you know that the Catholic Church has two main organizations in the United States that respond to people in need? The mission of Catholic Relief Services is to assist the poor and vulnerable overseas, while Catholic Charities USA provides service to people in need in the United States. Together, we try to assist as many people as possible.  Please visit www.crs.org for more information on Catholic Relief Services, and visit www.catholiccharitiesusa.org for more information on Catholic Charities USA! Thanks for your support!

CATHOLIC CHARITIES OFFERS SERVICES FOR ADULTS: Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Greensburg provides volunteer services to older adults (age 60 and older), including supportive and regular visits, telephone calls, greeting cards and other mailings to prevent loneliness and isolation and brighten a person’s day.

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.
