After three years of prayer, study and consultation, Bishop David Zubik has announced his decisions related to the On Mission for The Church Alive! strategic planning initiative.
The changes are designed to promote vibrant faith and healthy growth in every parish and ministry of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, inviting everyone into a deeper or new relationship with Jesus Christ and the Church.
Effective Monday, October 15, 2018, the diocese’s 188 parishes will be placed in 57 groupings that will become new parishes between 2020 and 2023. Priests and deacons have been assigned to serve in parishes, as well as major hospitals, nursing homes, colleges, high schools and correctional institutions.
Each parish grouping is assigned a timeline for merging and a maximum number of Masses to be celebrated on weekends. New, interim Mass schedules will be announced in August and take effect October 15.
